| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, portrayed from behind, with the paludamentum visible over the left shoulder. The imperial effigy is rendered in the characteristic Alexandrian provincial style, with bold relief despite the coin's worn state. The encircling Greek legend identifies the emperor by his full imperial titulature, distributed across both sides of the bust. Patches of green patina and surface wear are consistent with an extensively circulated provincial bronze issue. |
