Reverse description The goddess Nilus, personification of the River Nile, reclines to the left in a relaxed pose, her body supported on a crocodile whose scaled form is rendered in detail beneath her. She holds a reed or palm frond in her raised left hand, while her right arm rests upon the crocodile's back. A small figure, likely a Nilotic infant or putto, is visible near her upper right. The date legend L ΤΡΙCΚΑΙΔΕ, denoting regnal year 13 in the Alexandrian dating system, is inscribed in the exergue below a horizontal ground line.
