| Obverse description | Bare-shouldered, laureate bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, rendered with finely detailed curling hair and a full, neatly trimmed beard characteristic of Hadrian's iconic portraiture. The emperor's strong facial features are depicted with high sculptural relief, displaying the Hellenistic artistic influence that distinguished Hadrianic coinage. A beaded border frames the design. The circular legend reads HADRIANVS AVGVSTVS around the periphery. |
