Reverse description Eirene, goddess of Peace, depicted standing facing left in flowing robes, her right hand extending an olive branch and her left hand holding a long sceptre. The figure is rendered in the characteristic Alexandrian provincial style with a slightly compact, frontal treatment. The regnal year mark appears in the left field as the letter Gamma (Γ) preceded by the Egyptian year symbol L, denoting regnal year 3. A beaded border frames the entire reverse design.
