Year 19 of Hadrian's reign by the Alexandrian calendar — ΕΝΝΕΑΚΑΙΔΕΚΑΤΟΥ abbreviated on the reverse — placing this coin in 134/135 AD, the year Hadrian was consolidating his settlement of Judaea following the catastrophic Bar Kokhba revolt. The rebellion had ended around 135, with Jerusalem refounded as Aelia Capitolina and Jews banned from entering. Egypt itself remained a critical grain supplier throughout, its mint producing dated bronzes with unusual chronological precision that Roman provincial mints rarely matched.
