| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Hadrian facing right, with drapery visible on the left shoulder, rendered in the characteristic Alexandrian provincial style. The emperor's effigy displays finely detailed hair beneath the laurel wreath, with the portrait exhibiting the broad, squared facial features typical of Hadrianic coinage from the Alexandria mint. The Greek imperial legend encircles the bust, partially visible around the periphery of the flan. The coin shows an irregular flan with areas of green patina consistent with long burial. |
