Reverse description Draped bust of Helios facing right, distinguished by a radiate crown of solar rays emanating from the head. The bust is rendered with drapery across the shoulder in the Alexandrian provincial style. The date regnal legend L ΙΗ (Year 18) appears in the field, referencing the eighteenth regnal year of Antoninus Pius corresponding to 154–155 CE. The reverse composition is typical of Alexandrian bronze coinage, which frequently depicted Helios as a prominent solar deity within the city's syncretic religious tradition.
