| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Hadrian facing right, with a full beard rendered in tightly curled ringlets characteristic of the emperor's portraiture. The effigy displays the characteristic Hadrianic physiognomy with strong features and a slightly idealized profile. The bust terminates with paludamentum visible at the truncation. The circular legend reads IMP CAESAR TRAIAN HADRIANVS AVG in Latin capitals, distributed evenly around the periphery of the flan. |
