背面描述	A griffin seated to the left, its right forepaw resting upon a wheel, rendered in fine relief typical of Alexandrian provincial coinage. The griffin, a mythological creature combining lion and eagle, is depicted with outstretched or folded wings and a muscular feline body. The regnal date legend appears in the field, confirming the eleventh year of Hadrian's reign in the Egyptian calendar. The composition reflects Alexandrian artistic conventions blending Hellenistic and Egyptian iconographic traditions.

附加信息	Year 11 of Hadrian's reign coincided with his grand tour of the eastern provinces, a journey that fundamentally reshaped imperial policy toward Egypt. Alexandria's mint was particularly active during this period, producing a wide range of local bronze issues tied to the Egyptian regnal calendar — "L ΙΑ" marking the eleventh year by that reckoning. Hadrian arrived in Egypt in 130 AD, slightly after this piece was struck, but his impending visit almost certainly influenced the administrative energy behind issues like this one.
