| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with drapery visible on the left shoulder, rendered in the characteristic Alexandrian provincial style. The emperor's beard and curled hair are carefully detailed, consistent with his well-known portraiture. The Greek imperial titulature is disposed around the bust in two segments separated by the portrait, with the legend reading ΑΥΤ ΚΑΙ - ΤΡΑΙ ΑΔΡΙΑ ϹΕΒ. The flan is slightly irregular at the edges, typical of Alexandrian bronze production of this period. |
