| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of Lucius Aelius Caesar facing left, with short beard and elaborately curled hair rendered in the Antonine style. The portrait displays a draped shoulder visible at the truncation, conveying the dignified bearing of Hadrian's designated heir. The legend is disposed around the periphery of the flan, framed by a beaded border. The engraving is of high quality, characteristic of the Rome mint under Hadrian, with deeply modelled facial features and finely articulated curls. |
