| Beschrijving keerzijde | A bull charging or butting to the right, depicted with considerable vigour in the field. The animal is shown in full profile with lowered head, a motif associated with Alexandrian civic and religious symbolism. The date formula appears in the upper field as the regnal year legend. The style is consistent with Alexandrian bronze coinage of Hadrian's reign, with the figure occupying the majority of the reverse field. |

Year 11 of Hadrian's reign coincided with his celebrated tour of Egypt in 130 AD — but this coin predates that visit by several years, struck when Alexandria's mint was already producing its distinctive regnal-year dating system, unique among Roman provincial issues. The Alexandrian mint counted by the emperor's Egyptian regnal years rather than consular dates, giving numismatists an unusually precise chronological anchor unavailable with most provincial bronzes.
