| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with drapery visible on the left shoulder. The effigy is rendered in the provincial style characteristic of Achaean civic coinage of the early 2nd century AD. The Greek legend ΚΑΙϹΑΡ ΑΔΡΙΑΝΟϹ runs around the periphery of the flan. The coin exhibits the typically irregular fabric of hammered provincial bronze coinage. |
