| Beschrijving keerzijde | Nike, the winged goddess of victory, advancing briskly to the left across the coin field, her wings spread behind her. She holds a victor's wreath extended in her right hand and carries a long palm-branch over her left shoulder, her drapery flowing dynamically with her stride. The regnal date legend L ΙϚ (Year 16) is inscribed to the left of the figure in the field. The type is a standard reverse motif for Alexandrian coinage of Antoninus Pius, rendered with competent provincial die-cutting. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Year 16 of Antoninus Pius's reign corresponds to the final stable decade of the Antonine peace — a period when Alexandrian bronze production was particularly high-volume and the mint was striking for a provincial population that used these large bronzes as functional daily currency rather than prestige pieces. The regnal year dating system, unique to Alexandrian coinage within the Roman provincial series, allows unusually precise attribution within a single reign.
The L ΙϚ designation marks this as year 16, beginning 29 August 152 AD by the Egyptian calendar.
