Hello.  Apparently I got this coin of Tiberius,With this information I got it.(AlexandrÃa,1 Obolo- 14-37 AD. Bronze,20 mm.Hl in the reverse = year 8 of Reign, 21 AD)  But found no similar.Found no reversal of Tiberius, with this design. The closest is this. But is Nero.   Nero, AE Obol, 61/62 (Year 8), Egypt-Alexandria Laureate head right Roma standing facing, helmeted head left, patera in right hand, transverse spear and shield in left L H in lower left field 20mm x 21mm, 5.34g Can you help me?.

I couldnt tell you for sure the attribution so have to wait for one of the experts. I can tell you that many coins share the same reverses.

While the obverse of your coin is not clear I believe I see lambda AV which should fall at the obverse right of a Nero (KLAVDIOS) meaning you show your obvers upside down. I can not see the portrait. Tiberius did not use the name Claudius and I am not able to explain these letters otherwise o I suspect your coin is also Nero.

My resources of Alexandria provincial coins is fairly limited, but from what I see I think you may be correct. The obverse image of your coin is poor so it is hard to say for sure. What I found as a possible match is RPC 5263:
AE Diobol, Alexandria, Year 8, 61-62 AD. NER KLAU KAIC CEB GER, laureate head right / AUTOKRAT, Roma standing left, holding patera, spear and shield; date LH to left
Sorry. I can't help any more than that.
