| Additional information |
Alexandria's civic bronze issues under Hadrian are dated by regnal year using the Egyptian calendar, making precise attribution straightforward where the date survives clearly. The "L ΙΑ" indicates year 11 of Hadrian's reign — 126/127 AD — a period when the emperor was actually present in Egypt, his visit sparking a notable surge in local mint activity and a broader range of reverse types than seen in quieter administrative years.
