| Beschrijving keerzijde | Euthenia, the personification of abundance and prosperity in Alexandrian iconography, reclines to the left atop a sphinx. She is depicted holding ears of corn in her extended hand, referencing the agricultural fertility of Egypt. The composition is characteristic of Alexandrian civic coinage under Hadrian, with the date regnal formula appearing prominently in the field. The sphinx beneath the figure serves as a distinctly Egyptian symbolic element, underlining the Greco-Egyptian artistic synthesis of the mint. |

Year 10 of Hadrian's reign — rendered in Egyptian regnal dating as L ΔΕ — falls squarely within his extended tour of the eastern provinces, during which he visited Alexandria in 130 AD. The Alexandrian mint maintained its own dating system and a distinct civic identity long after Egypt became a Roman province, issuing bronze for purely local circulation that never left the Nile valley by official design.
