Æ34 - Antoninus Pius L Ε

Year five of Antoninus Pius's reign — rendered here as L Ε in the Alexandrian regnal dating system — fell during a period of relative administrative calm in Egypt, though the province had barely recovered from the catastrophic Jewish revolt of 115–117 AD, which left Alexandria's Jewish quarter largely destroyed. The Alexandrian mint operated under the prefect of Egypt rather than any central Roman monetary authority, giving its bronze coinage a semi-autonomous character found nowhere else in the empire.

The IV.4#499 reference places this within Dattari-Savio's expanded corpus, the essential framework for serious Alexandrian bronze collectors.
