| Obverse description | Bare head of Emperor Tiberius facing right, rendered in a somewhat crude provincial style typical of Alexandrian bronze coinage. The portrait is unadorned, without laurel wreath or diadem, consistent with the early Tiberian period in Egypt. The abbreviated Greek legend ΣΕ (Sebastos, meaning Augustus) appears divided in the field flanking the portrait. |

| Reverse description | A circular laurel wreath occupies the central field of the reverse, tied at the base. Within the wreath, the Greek regnal legend is inscribed in three lines, denoting the emperor's name and the regnal year. The design is characteristic of the simplified, functional style of Alexandrian provincial bronze issues under the early Julio-Claudian emperors. |
