| Reverse description | Depiction of the Pharos of Alexandria, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, rendered as a multi-tiered lighthouse tower rising from a base platform, with a fire beacon or ornamental finial at the summit. The structure is shown frontally, with architectural detail suggesting the characteristic stepped tiers of the famous lighthouse. The date legend L ΙΗ (regnal year 18) appears in the field, a standard feature of Alexandrian provincial coinage used to date issues within the reign of Antoninus Pius. |
