| Reverse description | Draped bust of Sarapis facing right, the deity distinguished by his characteristic kalathos (modius) atop his head and a laurel wreath, reflecting the syncretic Greco-Egyptian iconography prevalent in Alexandrian coinage. The rendering emphasizes the god's voluminous hair and beard in the Hellenistic tradition. The regnal year date in Greek numerals appears in the field, confirming the coin's issue year within Hadrian's reign. |
