背面描述	Radiate, draped bust of Helios facing right, the solar deity depicted with prominent radiate crown of diverging rays emanating from the head, conveying divine luminosity. The bust is rendered in the confident provincial style of Alexandrian workshops, with the drapery indicated across the shoulder. The regnal year date appears in the field in Greek numerals. The reverse type reflects the strong Egyptian solar religious tradition incorporated into Alexandrian imperial coinage.

附加信息	Year four of Antoninus Pius's reign — recorded here by the regnal date L Δ — corresponds to 140–141 AD, the same period in which Antoninus was consolidating his reputation as a studiously undramatic emperor who never left Italy after his accession. Alexandria's imperial mint was among the most prolific provincial operations in the empire, running continuous annual dated series that now give historians a precise chronological framework impossible to reconstruct from Rome's own undated bronzes.
