| Aanvullende informatie |
Year 16 of Hadrian's reign fell during his second extended tour of the eastern provinces, a journey that took him through Egypt in 130–131 AD. The visit coincided with the drowning of his companion Antinous in the Nile — an event that sent the emperor into open grief and triggered the founding of Antinoöpolis on the very site. Alexandrian bronze issues of this regnal year were struck in that charged atmosphere, the mint operating under unusual imperial scrutiny.
