| Obverse description | Laureate head of Hadrian facing right, with drapery visible on the left shoulder. The effigy is rendered in the typical Alexandrian provincial style, with the laurel wreath clearly distinguishable despite significant wear and surface patination.

| Reverse description | A bunch of grapes depicted in the central field, serving as the nome badge identifying the Sebennyte nome of Lower Egypt. The type is characteristic of the Alexandrian nome coinage issued under Hadrian, with the regnal year and nome designation rendered in Greek characters flanking the central device. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show heavy patination consistent with ancient bronze coinage of this series. |
