| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed effigy of Emperor Hadrian facing right, rendered in the provincial style typical of Achaean colonial coinage. The portrait displays the characteristic short beard and strong facial features associated with Hadrian's mature portraiture. The surrounding legend is disposed around the periphery of the flan. The coin exhibits heavy patination consistent with prolonged burial, partially obscuring fine detail of the relief. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Patras held the status of a Roman colony — Colonia Auge Augusta Achaica Patrensis — established by Augustus following the Battle of Actium, when he forcibly synoikized the surrounding Achaean towns into a single loyalist settlement. Hadrian visited the city during his extensive tour of the Greek east beginning around 128 AD, and the colonial mint responded with a run of bronze issues marking his presence. Provincial bronze of this colony is sparsely documented; the RPC III reference places surviving specimens in very small numbers.
