| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, seen from behind, with detailed rendering of the paludamentum and armor. The legend encircles the effigy in Greek characters, reading ΑΥΤ ΚΑΙ ΤΡΑΙ ΑΔΡΙΑ ϹΕΒ, abbreviating his imperial titulature. The portrait displays the characteristic Hadrianic beard and laureate wreath, executed in the distinctive Alexandrian provincial style. The overall fabric is slightly irregular, consistent with hand-struck provincial coinage of the period. |
