| Reverse description | The personification of Hispania reclines to the left upon rocky ground, her body draped in flowing robes, her right arm extended forward presenting an olive branch. A rabbit — emblematic of the Iberian Peninsula and frequently associated with its coinage iconography — crouches to the lower left before her. The composition is open and spacious within the beaded border, with the legend HISPANIA arching across the upper field, clearly identifying the provincial allegory in the characteristic style of Hadrian's 'travel series' aurei. |
