| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of Emperor Antoninus Pius facing right, rendered in the typical Alexandrian provincial style. The portrait displays the emperor's characteristic features with a short beard and naturalistic facial modeling. A Greek imperial legend surrounds the effigy along the periphery of the flan. The coin surface bears a heavy patina of green and brown encrustation consistent with Egyptian burial conditions. |
