| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, cuirassed and paludamentum-draped bust of Antoninus Pius facing right, depicted from the rear in the distinctive Alexandrian three-quarter back view. The emperor's portrait is rendered in the provincial Roman style characteristic of the Alexandrian mint, with the laurel wreath clearly visible atop the head. The surrounding field carries the imperial titulature legend in Greek characters. The flan is broad and irregular, consistent with Alexandrian bronze coinage of the Antonine period. |

Regnal year 8 of Antoninus Pius (144–145 AD) places this issue squarely within the most administratively stable period of the entire Antonine dynasty. Alexandria's imperial mint was producing bronze coinage at high volume during these years, partly to service the commercial demands of Egypt's grain economy, which still funneled the bulk of Rome's wheat supply through the port at Alexandria. The Egyptian provincial bronze series ran on its own closed monetary system — Roman coins did not circulate freely in Egypt, and Egyptian coins did not leave it.
Milne's catalog and the subsequent RPC reclassification have both flagged year 8 issues as among the more prolific of the reign, with considerable die variation documented across the series.
