Obverse lettering ΑΥΤ Κ Τ ΑΙΛ ΑΔΡ ΑΝΤωΝΙΝΟϹ ΕΥϹΕΒ
(Translation: Emperor Caesar Titus Aelius Hadrian Antoninus Pius)
Reverse description Draped bust of Sarapis Pantheos facing right, wearing a kalathos (modius) atop the head and adorned with a radiate crown, with a ram's horn curling around the ear — attributes identifying the deity's syncretic Pantheos aspect. Before the bust, a trident with a serpent coiled around its shaft is depicted in the left field, referencing his maritime and chthonic authority. The date regnal legend appears in the field. The composition reflects the elaborate syncretism characteristic of Alexandrian religious iconography under the Antonine dynasty.
