| Obverse description | Laureate, cuirassed, and paludamentum-draped bust of Emperor Antoninus Pius facing right, depicted from the rear in the characteristic Alexandrian three-quarter back view. The imperial effigy is rendered in the provincial style typical of the Alexandrian mint, with the laurel wreath clearly delineated atop the head. The surrounding field carries the Greek imperial titulature legend. The overall style reflects the bold, high-relief artistic tradition of Roman provincial coinage from Egypt. |
