| Beschrijving keerzijde | Harpocrates, the Hellenized Egyptian god of silence and childhood, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left. The deity raises his right index finger to his lips in his characteristic gesture of silence, while his left arm cradles a cornucopia symbolizing abundance and prosperity. The figure reflects the syncretic religious iconography prevalent in Roman Alexandria, blending indigenous Egyptian and Greek artistic traditions. The regnal year date appears in the field, rendered in Greek numerals as L ΙΖ (year 17 of Hadrian's reign). |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Year 17 of Hadrian's reign coincided with his second visit to Egypt, a tour that followed the drowning of his companion Antinous in the Nile in 130 AD. The Alexandrian mint responded with a surge of commemorative and dated output across multiple types, making this regnal year one of the more densely documented in the provincial series. The L ΙΖ dating formula — the Egyptian way of expressing "year 17" — places this coin precisely within that charged administrative moment.
