| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare or laureate head of Hadrian facing right, the portrait rendered in low relief with visible hair detailing consistent with Hadrianic Alexandrian coinage. The flan is small and irregular, typical of the minor bronze issues produced at Alexandria during the reign of Hadrian. No surrounding legend is present, the field being plain. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Year 14 of Hadrian's reign coincided with his celebrated tour of Egypt in 130 AD — a visit that prompted an extraordinary outpouring of local coinage from the Alexandrian mint. The emperor arrived by late summer, toured the Nile with his entourage, and witnessed the drowning of his favourite Antinous near Hermopolis, an event that would reshape imperial religious policy for decades. Alexandrian bronzes of this regnal year were struck in the thick of that visit.
The tiny module suggests a fractional denomination within Alexandria's complex local bronze tariff, outside the standard tetradrachm sequence.
