| Obverse description | Laureate head of Hadrian facing right, rendered in the vigorous provincial style typical of Judaean civic coinage. The emperor's portrait displays characteristic curled hair and beard, with the laurel wreath clearly defined around the head. A circular Greek legend surrounds the portrait in the field, identifying the ruler by his imperial titulature. The flan is slightly irregular, as is common for provincial bronze issues of this period. |
