| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, draped bust of Antoninus Pius facing right, wearing the paludamentum (military cloak) fastened at the shoulder. The emperor's portrait is rendered in the typical Antonine style, with a wreath of laurel encircling the head. The surrounding Greek legend identifies the emperor by his full titulature. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show heavy patination consistent with Egyptian bronze coinage of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Year 18 of Antoninus Pius's reign, which is what the regnal date L ΙΗ records, fell during one of the most administratively stable decades in Roman imperial history — the provinces ran almost without incident, and Egypt was no exception. Alexandria's mint was a closed currency system; Roman denarii and local bronze circulated in parallel but could not legally be exchanged outside Egypt's borders, a monetary isolation enforced since Augustus that gave the Alexandrian mint unusual autonomy over its own production schedules and type selection.
The IV.4#1720 reference places this within Emmett's catalog of Alexandrian coinage, the standard reference for the series.
