| Obverse description | Bare laureate head of the emperor Hadrian facing right, rendered in the provincial Greek style typical of Carian mint production of the early second century AD. The portrait displays the characteristic short beard and idealized features associated with Hadrianic imperial imagery. The circumferential Greek legend runs around the periphery of the flan. The flan is slightly irregular and the surfaces show the typical dark patination of a circulated provincial bronze. |
