| Beschrijving keerzijde | Poseidon, god of the sea, depicted standing with right foot raised upon a rock, his nude or semi-draped figure oriented to the right. In his right hand he holds a long trident, the attribute most closely associated with his divine authority, while his left hand grasps a dolphin. The regnal date legend appears in the field, recording Year 18 of Antoninus Pius's reign in the Alexandrian dating system. The reverse type reflects the strong Hellenistic religious tradition maintained in Alexandrian civic coinage, evoking the maritime significance of Egypt's principal port city. |

Year 18 of Antoninus Pius — 154/155 AD — places this Alexandria bronze near the midpoint of one of Rome's most administratively stable reigns. The Alexandrian civic mint operated under Roman prefectural authority but maintained its own regnal year dating system, a holdover from Ptolemaic practice that makes Egyptian bronzes among the most precisely datable provincial issues in the entire Roman series. The L followed by the year numeral is the Egyptian shorthand for "year," derived from the Greek word for the Nile flood cycle.
