| Obverse lettering | ΑΥ ΚΑΙ ΤΡ ΑΔΡΙΑΝΟϹ (Translation: Emperor Caesar Trajan Hadrian) |
| Reverse description | Zeus Nikephoros standing facing with head turned to the left, his extended right hand supporting an eagle, while his left hand rests upon a tall sceptre. The figure is rendered in the classical standing pose typical of civic bronze coinage from Hierapolis in Phrygia. The ethnic legend of the city encircles the design in the field. The composition reflects the prominence of the Zeus cult at Hierapolis under Roman imperial patronage. |
