| Beschrijving keerzijde | The Trojan hero Hector depicted in full martial attire, helmeted and clad in armour, striding vigorously to the right. He raises a stone in his outstretched right hand, ready to hurl it in combat, while his left arm bears a round shield. The type reflects Ilium's proud claim to Trojan heritage and its veneration of Hector as a civic hero and mythological ancestor. The reverse legend appears in the field identifying both the issuing city and the depicted figure. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ilium — the Roman city built over the ruins of Troy — occupied a unique ideological position in the imperial world. Hadrian visited the site during his eastern tour, reportedly paying homage at the tomb of Hector, whose name appears in the magistrate's title on this very issue. The city exploited its Trojan heritage aggressively in civic coinage, leveraging the Roman founding myth to maintain favor with successive emperors who traced their ancestry, however fictionally, back to Aeneas.
The conventus of Adramyteum administered a stretch of the Troad coast where Ilium's symbolic weight far exceeded its economic one.
