| Reverse description | A hawk (sacred falcon of Horus) stands facing left, rendered in the hieratic Egyptian style, surmounted by the double crown of Upper and Lower Egypt (skhent). The bird is depicted in a static, upright posture with wings folded against the body, its tail feathers extending downward. The date regnal legend L Η appears in the field, denoting Year 8 of Antoninus Pius's reign. The reverse design reflects the deliberate synthesis of Pharaonic religious iconography within the Roman imperial coinage of Alexandria. |
