Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate bust of Hadrian facing right, with drapery visible on the left shoulder. The emperor's effigy is rendered in the typical Alexandrian provincial style, with curled hair beneath the laurel wreath. The surrounding Greek legend identifies the emperor by his imperial titulature. The flan is irregular and the surface shows characteristic wear consistent with circulation.

Aanvullende informatie

Year 7 of Hadrian's reign corresponds to his famous grand tour of the eastern provinces, during which he visited Egypt in 130 AD — though that visit postdates this issue by nearly a decade. Alexandria's civic mint operated on a distinct regnal dating system tied to the Egyptian calendar, making Alexandrian bronzes among the more precisely dateable provincial issues of the period. The L Ζ notation places this squarely in 122–123, when Hadrian was consolidating frontier policy following the abandonment of Trajan's Mesopotamian conquests.
