| Reverse description | Bust of Nilus facing right, with a lotus flower prominently placed on his shoulder, personifying the sacred and life-giving Nile River in the distinctive iconographic tradition of Alexandrian coinage. The figure is rendered in moderate relief with characteristic drapery, and the lotus serves as the primary attribute identifying the deity. The encircling Greek legend ΕΤΟΥΣ ΔΕΥΤΕΡΟΥ indicates the regnal year two of Domitian's reign in Egypt, equivalent to 82–83 AD. The composition reflects the syncretic religious imagery favoured at the Alexandrian mint, blending Egyptian and Greco-Roman traditions. |
