| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Antoninus Pius facing left, wearing the paludamentum (military cloak) fastened at the shoulder. The emperor's effigy is rendered in the typical Alexandrian provincial style, with the laurel wreath clearly visible atop the head. The surrounding field carries the Greek imperial titulature legend distributed around the bust. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, consistent with hammered provincial coinage of the period. |
