| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bust of Zeus Ammon facing right, depicted with the characteristic ram's horn curling before the ear, rendered in a worn but recognizable Hellenistic style. The effigy occupies the central field of this small bronze chalkon, with no surrounding legend. The portrait reflects the syncretic Greco-Egyptian religious iconography prevalent on Ptolemaic coinage of the late second century BC. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ptolemy IX's first reign ended in 107 BC when his mother Cleopatra III, who had long held the real power in Alexandria, expelled him in favor of his younger brother Ptolemy X. The years covered by this issue — 107 to 101 BC — are technically the period of his exile in Cyprus, where he governed as a client king under Rome's watchful tolerance rather than as pharaoh in Egypt.
Svoronos 1733 places this chalkon among the smaller fractional bronzes circulating in the eastern Mediterranean during a reign that was more administrative interruption than erasure.
