| Obverse lettering | IMP CAESAR TRAIAN HADRIANVS AVG (Translation: Imperator Caesar Traianus Hadrianus Augustus. Supreme commander (Imperator), Caesar, Trajan Hadrian, emperor (Augustus).) |
| Reverse description | Mars, the god of war, depicted helmeted and cuirassed, standing facing with head turned slightly, holding an upright spear in his right hand and resting his left hand upon a large round shield set on the ground beside him. The figure is rendered in a composed, classical contrapposto stance conveying martial power and divine protection. The reverse legend is disposed in the field around the deity, with no exergue line, the type reflecting Hadrian's early emphasis on military and divine patronage. |
