| Reversbeschreibung | Draped bust of Nilus facing right, crowned with a taenia and wreathed with lotus buds, personifying the sacred river of Egypt. A cornucopia appears over the shoulder behind the bust, symbolizing the river's abundant fertility and its vital role in sustaining Egyptian agricultural prosperity. The reverse type is characteristic of Hadrianic Alexandrian coinage, which frequently celebrated the Nile and its associated deities. The regnal year date appears in the field in Greek numerals, a standard feature of Egyptian provincial coinage. The composition reflects the syncretic religious tradition of Roman Alexandria. |

Year 18 of Hadrian's reign fell during his second and final visit to Egypt, a tour that began in 130 AD and left a deep administrative mark on the province. The dating formula L ΙΗ anchors this piece precisely to 133–134, well after the catastrophic Bar Kokhba revolt had been suppressed — a conflict that drew heavily on Egyptian military resources and reshaped Rome's eastern priorities. Alexandrian bronzes of this regnal year were struck in notably higher volumes than adjacent years, likely reflecting the mint's response to economic disruption in the aftermath of that war.
