| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with drapery visible on the left shoulder. The effigy is rendered in the typical Roman provincial style of Alexandrian coinage, with the legend encircling the portrait in the field. The facial features are characteristic of Hadrianic portraiture, displaying a bearded visage consistent with his later numismatic representations. |
