| Obverse description | Bare-headed, draped, and bearded bust of Emperor Hadrian facing left, rendered in high relief with finely detailed curly hair and a short, close-cropped beard characteristic of Hadrian's well-known Hellenistic-influenced portraiture. The effigy displays strong, naturalistic facial modeling with a prominent brow and aquiline nose. A beaded border (grenetis) runs along the coin's circumference. The circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait, reading HADRIANVS AVG COS III P P. |
