Æ33 - Antoninus Pius L Κ

正面描述	Laureate draped bust of Emperor Antoninus Pius facing left, wearing the paludamentum (military cloak) fastened at the shoulder. The effigy is rendered in the typical Alexandrian provincial style, with the laureate wreath clearly distinguishing the imperial portrait. The surrounding legend in Greek characters identifies the emperor by his full titulature. The flan is irregular and the surfaces heavily worn, as is common for high-denomination Alexandrian bronzes of this period.

背面描述	The river god Nilus reclines to the left in a relaxed pose, holding a reed in one hand and a cornucopia in the other, emblematic of the Nile's life-giving abundance. A crocodile, the sacred animal of the Nile, is depicted beside him. In the field before the deity appears a domed structure with steps, likely representing the Nilometer or a sanctuary associated with the Nile cult. The date regnal legend L Κ (Year 20) appears in the field. The reverse type is a celebrated Alexandrian motif celebrating the annual inundation upon which Egypt's prosperity depended.
