| Obverse lettering | IMP CAES TRA HADR AVG P P |
| Reverse description | Two female figures, personifying the allied cities of Corinth and Patras, stand facing one another on either side of a central altar. Each figure is rendered in the classical draped style typical of Roman provincial coinage, the composition symbolizing the concordia (harmony) between the two Achaean colonies. The Latin legend, divided across the field, references the dedicatory theme of civic concord. The design reflects the iconographic program associated with Hadrian's tours of the Greek provinces. |
