Obverse lettering ΑΥΤ Κ Τ ΑΙΛ ΑΔΡ ΑΝΤωΝΙΝΟϹ ΕΥϹΕΒ
(Translation: Emperor Caesar Titus Aelius Hadrian Antoninus Pius)
Reverse description Bare head of the Egyptian deity Ammon facing right, adorned with a taenia (fillet) bound around the brow and with traces of drapery visible at the neck. The ram's horns characteristic of Ammon are present at the sides of the head, rendered in the syncretic Greco-Egyptian style typical of Alexandrian provincial bronzes. The field to the left bears the regnal year date in Greek numerals. The reverse design reflects the religious iconography of Ptolemaic and Roman Egypt, integrating the local cult of Ammon within the framework of imperial coinage.
