Beschrijving keerzijde Eagle standing to the left with head turned to the right, rendered in high relief in the Alexandrian provincial tradition. The bird's wings are folded at its sides, and the powerful stance is characteristic of the imperial eagle type commonly employed on Alexandrian bronze coinage of this period. The regnal date legend L Β appears in the field, identifying this issue as struck in the second year of Antoninus Pius's reign.

Aanvullende informatie

Antoninus Pius's first Egyptian regnal year coinage — struck immediately after Hadrian's death in July 138 — was produced under a provincial mint system that operated on a calendar running from the Egyptian new year in late August, meaning the L Β ("year 2") designation appeared almost immediately after L Α issues, within months of his accession. Alexandria's bronze output during these early Antonine years was substantial, serving a province whose monetized economy depended heavily on base-metal coinage for daily transactions along the Nile trade routes.
