<p>[QUOTE="SeptimusT, post: 3659977, member: 91240"]I did a search for Alexandrian Nilus AEs of Hadrian and came up with a couple possibilities. I can't recommend the new RPC site enough (<a href="https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk" rel="nofollow">https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk</a>). I think it can't be Euthenia, since I didn't see any depicting her holding a reed in the position of the one on this coin, so it must be one of the Nilus coins. Anyway, the exact ID would depend on the inscription and what is in the exergue (area beneath Nilus), and I can't see enough in the picture to say. Here are a couple options:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/3/5601" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/3/5601" rel="nofollow">https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/3/5601</a></p><p><a href="https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/3/6017" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/3/6017" rel="nofollow">https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/3/6017</a></p><p><a href="https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/3/6016" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/3/6016" rel="nofollow">https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/3/6016</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
