| Additional information |
Year 13 of Hadrian's reign coincided with his famous tour of Egypt in 130 AD — close enough that the provincial mint at Alexandria was operating under heightened imperial attention. These small bronzes, the lowest denomination in the Alexandrian system, circulated as everyday fractional currency in a city where the monetized economy ran deep into the grain and textile trades.
The III#5734 reference places this among the catalogued issues of the third volume of Dattari-Savio, the foundational corpus for Alexandrian provincials.
