Is it possible to identify the woman on the obverse of this Roman Egypt coin?
Thanks

Thank you. The DELTA on the reverse would be a numeral '4' but wasn't sure what the preceding symbol meant. Used to seeing the first letter as an L, indicating a date.
But in this case if it is an IOTA then together they make 14, indeed, and consistent with the last year of the reign. Maybe there would be an L also, but it's just off the coin on this
specimen.
