| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with drapery visible on the left shoulder. The effigy is rendered in the provincial Alexandrian style, with the laureate wreath clearly delineated. A Greek imperial legend encircles the portrait, divided across the field, identifying the emperor by his full titulature. The coin exhibits the characteristic irregular flan of Alexandrian bronze coinage of this period. |
