| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Antoninus Pius facing right, with a full beard rendered in fine detail. The emperor's portrait is depicted in a mature, authoritative style typical of Alexandrian provincial coinage. The obverse legend runs clockwise around the periphery of the flan in Greek characters, identifying the emperor by his full titulature. The flan is broad and slightly irregular, as is characteristic of struck bronze issues from the Alexandrian mint. |
