| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, rendered in three-quarter rear view, with beard depicted in the characteristic Hellenic style adopted by Hadrian. The imperial effigy shows fine drapery over the left shoulder. The encircling Latin legend reads HADRIANVS AVGVSTVS P P, distributed around the field in capitals. The portrait displays the refined provincial die-cutting style characteristic of Ionian civic coinage of the early second century AD. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Miletus, by Hadrian's reign, had long since lost its classical dominance but retained enough administrative weight to strike coins within the Conventus system — the Roman judicial circuit that organized provincial coinage rights across Asia Minor. The city's right to strike silver at this weight was not a given; it reflected negotiated civic status rather than automatic privilege. Hadrian visited the region during his extensive eastern tours of 123–124 and again in 128–129, and local coinages frequently spiked in production around imperial visits, serving fiscal as much as honorific purposes.
