| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, portrayed in three-quarter view from the front, with the paludamentum visible over the left shoulder. The imperial effigy exhibits the characteristic close-cropped beard associated with Hadrianic portraiture. A Greek legend encircles the bust in the field, reading the emperor's titulature. The flan is irregular and the surface shows typical provincial patination. |
