| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with drapery visible on the left shoulder, rendered in the Alexandrian provincial style. The obverse legend reads ΑΥΤ ΚΑΙ ΤΡΑΙ ΑΔΡΙΑ ϹΕΒ, disposed around the bust in the field. A crescent symbol appears to the right of the portrait, a distinctive Alexandrian device. The flan is irregularly shaped, consistent with hammered provincial coinage of the period. |
