| Reverse description | The Agathodaemon serpent, a divine protective deity associated with Alexandria, depicted erect and rearing to the right, crowned with the double Egyptian crown (skhent). The serpent entwines a stalk of grain and a caduceus, symbolizing prosperity and divine protection. The regnal year legend appears in the field in Greek script. The design reflects the strong syncretism of Greco-Egyptian religious iconography characteristic of Alexandrian civic coinage. |
