| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed, short-bearded bust of Marcus Aurelius as Caesar, draped in cuirass and paludamentum, facing right, depicted from behind (rear three-quarter view). The portrait exhibits the youthful features characteristic of his pre-imperial representations. The encircling Greek legend identifies the subject as Antoninus Caesar, reflecting his adoptive name under Antoninus Pius. The die work is consistent with the Alexandria mint's provincial style of the mid-second century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This issue dates to regnal year 17 of Antoninus Pius, when Marcus Aurelius held the title Caesar and had been groomed for succession for nearly two decades. The Alexandrian mint operated under Roman administrative oversight but retained its own dating system tied to the Egyptian regnal calendar — a bureaucratic quirk that makes precise attribution to Roman consular years more complex than it appears. Emmett 1892.17 places this firmly within a well-documented sequence, though die alignment and fabric can vary considerably across the year's output.
