| Reverse description | Emperor Hadrian, laureate and wearing the toga, stands upright in a quadriga advancing to the right. He holds an eagle-tipped sceptre in one hand and a branch in the other, emblems of imperial authority and victory. The scene is rendered in the characteristic Alexandrian provincial style, with the horses of the quadriga shown in profile. The regnal year date in the field serves as the principal reverse legend, a hallmark of Alexandrian coinage dating practice. |
