Reverse description Emperor Hadrian depicted as an equestrian figure on a rearing horse, galloping to the right, his right arm raised and brandishing a spear aloft in a commanding martial posture. The emperor wears military dress, and the dynamic composition evokes imperial virtus and cavalry prowess. The field is plain, with the two-word legend distributed in the upper portion of the coin between the beaded border. A ground line is visible beneath the horse.
