| Obverse description | Draped bust of Livia facing right, rendered in the Alexandrian provincial style. The portrait shows the empress with elaborately dressed hair swept up from the nape, consistent with her known iconography from the Augustan period. The flan is somewhat irregular, with surface wear obscuring fine details of the drapery at the truncation. |

| Reverse description | Athena standing left in full figure, clad in chiton and aegis, extending her right arm forward in a gesture of offering or libation and holding a spear or sceptre vertically in her left hand. The date regnal legend L ΜΑ (year 41) is inscribed in the field, referencing the 41st year of the Augustan era as reckoned in Alexandria (corresponding to AD 11–12). The composition follows the standard Alexandrian civic type for this denomination. |
