| Beschrijving keerzijde | A sheep walking to the left occupies the central field, rendered in low relief with naturalistically suggested body mass. Above the animal appears the abbreviated toponym ΟΑϹΙϹ ΜΕΓ (the Great Oasis), and below a horizontal line the regnal year date L ΙΑ (Year 11) is inscribed in Greek numerals. This type commemorates the administrative district of the Great Oasis (Kharga) within Roman Egypt. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Alexandria's smallest bronzes from the Hadrianic period were essentially token coinage, circulating in a monetized economy where the Roman administration maintained Egypt as a closed currency zone — foreign coins were exchanged at the border and melted. The "L ΙΑ" regnal date places this piece in Hadrian's eleventh year, 126/127 AD. Oasis Magna, the large western desert oasis now known as Kharga, was administered as a distinct nome, and issues citing it are among the more geographically specific in the Alexandrian provincial series.
