| Reverse description | Tyche, the personification of fortune and patron deity of Alexandria, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left. She holds a long ship's rudder in her right hand and a cornucopia in her left arm, symbolising prosperity and providence. The regnal date formula L Β (Year 2, corresponding to 117–118 AD) appears in the field, divided to either side of the figure. The coin is struck on an irregular, somewhat thick flan typical of Alexandrian provincial issues of this period. |
