| Obverse description | Bare-headed and draped bust of Emperor Hadrian facing left, rendered with his characteristic short curly hair and full beard in the refined Hellenistic portrait style that distinguished his coinage. The emperor's paludamentum is visible at the shoulder, conveying imperial and military authority. The portrait is executed in high relief with exceptional artistic quality, the facial features finely detailed and individualized. The surrounding legend reads HADRIANVS AVG COS III P P, distributed around the periphery of the field. A beaded border frames the entire design. |
