| Reverse description | An eagle stands facing left with wings fully outstretched, its head turned to the right as it holds a wreath in its beak, a standard reverse type of the Alexandrian tetradrachm series. The regnal year legend ΕΤΟΥϹ E (and variants for subsequent years) appears in the field, denoting the specific year of Aurelianus's reign within the Egyptian calendar. The eagle is rendered with strong, schematic feathering in the provincial Alexandrian tradition. A dotted border surrounds the design. |
