| Aversbeschreibung | Bare-headed and laureate bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with characteristic short beard rendered in finely engraved curls, the effigy truncated at the neck. The portrait displays the hallmark Hadrianic style of idealized realism. A beaded border frames the design, with the Latin legend distributed around the periphery of the flan. |

| Reversbeschreibung | The Genius stands facing left in the field, rendered in the round with fine drapery about the lower body. In his extended right hand he holds a patera over a lighted altar to his left, from which flames or offerings rise; in his left arm he cradles a large cornucopia overflowing with fruits. The figure is set on a ground line, and the abbreviated consular legend flanks the central type to either side. A beaded border surrounds the entire composition. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Koinon of Bithynia was a provincial assembly granted the right to strike coins in part as a mechanism for expressing loyalty to Rome — and Hadrian gave them considerable reason to. His extensive tours of the eastern provinces between 123 and 124 AD brought him through Bithynia personally, and the COS III title fixes this issue to 119 AD or later, after his third consulship began. Provincial silver of this weight and authority from the Bithynian koinon is considerably scarcer than the bronze civic issues the region produced in volume.
