| Reverse description | Confronted draped busts of Sarapis and Isis, the syncretic divine pair venerated at Alexandria. Sarapis, wearing the taenia fillet and his distinctive modius-shaped kalathos atop his head, faces right, while Isis, wearing the basileion crown incorporating a solar disc flanked by cow horns, faces left. The two deities are presented in intimate proximity, symbolizing the divine couple central to Alexandrian religious life. The regnal date legend L ΚΓ appears in the field, denoting the twenty-third year of Antoninus Pius's reign. |
