| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with drapery visible on the left shoulder. The emperor's effigy is rendered in the characteristic Alexandrian provincial style, with finely engraved hair beneath the laurel wreath. The Greek imperial legend frames the portrait along the coin's periphery. The flan is broad and slightly irregular, typical of Alexandrian bronze coinage of the Hadrianic period. |
