| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Antoninus Pius facing right, rendered in the typical provincial style of Alexandrian coinage. The emperor's effigy displays a wreath of laurel securing neatly rendered locks of hair, with visible drapery over the left shoulder. A Greek imperial legend encircles the bust along the periphery, partially legible due to the coin's irregular flan and wear. The portrait exhibits the characteristic mature, bearded features associated with Antoninus Pius, executed with moderate relief consistent with mid-Antonine Alexandrian bronze coinage. |
