<p>[QUOTE="Sulla80, post: 4939884, member: 99456"]@Ryro, somewhow I missed this excellent thread until today. Here's a "Year 10" coin of Hadrian similar to the "Year 11" coins shown by [USER=56859]@TIF[/USER] and [USER=110350]@DonnaML[/USER]. I find the detail on the canopic jar and the way it matches the jar from Hadrian's villa quite amazing.</p><p><img src="http://64.media.tumblr.com/9093900127ef22e8a8f59b008710b23d/aae773d22ff066fb-ca/s1280x1920/43765651acc54651002f50c679f9ac0b81e6a705.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><font size="2"><a href="https://egypt-museum.com/post/189683370661/osiris-canopus-jar#gsc.tab=0" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://egypt-museum.com/post/189683370661/osiris-canopus-jar#gsc.tab=0" rel="nofollow">Image linked from the Egypt Museum</a></font></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1187405[/ATTACH]</p><p><b>Egypt, Alexandria, Hadrian</b>, AD 117-138, BI Tetradrachm, dated RY 10 (AD 125/6)</p><p><b>Obv:</b> Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust right</p><p><b>Rev: </b> Canopus of Osiris (canopic jar) right; L ΔE-KATOV (date) around</p><p><b>Ref: </b>RPC III <a href="https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/3/5578" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/3/5578" rel="nofollow"><u>5578</u></a><u>;</u> Dattari (Savio) 1325-6</p><p><b>Note:</b> more written on this coin <a href="https://www.sullacoins.com/post/hadrian-egyptian-canopic-jar" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.sullacoins.com/post/hadrian-egyptian-canopic-jar" rel="nofollow">here</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
