| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare, youthful diademed head of the Demos right, with flowing locks rendered in a naturalistic Hellenistic style. The legend ΙΕΡΟϹ ΔΗΜΟϹ (Sacred Demos) is disposed in the field around the portrait, identifying the personification of the civic people of Hadrianeia. The flan is slightly irregular, consistent with provincial bronze coinage of the Severan period. |

The ethnic legend ΑΔΡΙΑΝΕΩΝ (of the Hadrianians) is arranged around the figure, identifying the issuing city.

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hadrianeia was a minor Mysian city that owed its very existence to Hadrian's refoundation program of the early second century — one of dozens of communities across Asia Minor that adopted imperial names to signal loyalty and attract benefaction. Under Septimius Severus, provincial mints like this one resumed bronze production largely to fund local civic functions, the imperial treasury having little interest in supervising small Æ issues at this scale. The ethnic legend ΑΔΡΙΑΝΕΩΝ confirms civic rather than koinon authorization.
