Beschrijving keerzijde	Double cornucopia (dikeras) set upright at center, the two horns joined at the base and bound with a decorative fillet, overflowing with fruits and grain at their mouths — an emblem of royal abundance closely associated with the Ptolemaic dynasty and especially with queen-consort iconography. Greek legends appear in the fields flanking the device, with control letters or monograms visible in the left and right fields. The composition is spare and emblematic, consistent with the chalkon denomination issued under the joint reign of Ptolemy IX and Cleopatra III.
