| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with drapery visible on the left shoulder, rendered in the provincial Alexandrian style. The legend is disposed in two segments around the bust, reading ΑΥΤ ΚΑΙ ΤΡΑΙ to the right and ΑΔΡΙΑ ϹΕΒ to the left, identifying the emperor as Caesar Trajan Hadrian Augustus. The portrait exhibits the characteristic modelling of Hadrianic coinage from the Alexandrian mint, with a wreath of laurel encircling the head. |
