Æ36 - Marcus Aurelius ΕΠΙ ΛοΥΚΙοΥ ΑΠο ΑΡΧ Το Β ΑΔΡΙΑΝΕΩΝ (Δ with long serifs and Ω as closed ∩)

Hadrianeia, the Mysian city founded by Hadrian himself likely around 123 AD, struck civic bronzes under its own magistrates throughout the Antonine period. The inscription names a local archon serving in his second term — the ΑΠΟ ΑΡΧΩΝ formula indicating a past or current office-holder, with Το Β confirming a second tenure. The specific letterforms noted in the die — the delta with elongated serifs and the closed omega rendered as an inverted U — are documented diagnostic features used to attribute specimens to particular die pairs within this magistrate's issues.
