| Beschrijving keerzijde | The goddess Ceres, draped and enthroned to the left upon a wicker basket (cista mystica), extends her right hand forward holding a bundle of grain ears, while her raised left hand grasps a long torch. The figure is rendered in the classical Hadrianic style with finely articulated drapery falling in elegant folds over the seat. A ground line marks the base of the composition, and a beaded border encircles the field. The reverse field is plain, with no legend present on this type. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Sabina, wife of Hadrian, received the title Augusta around 128 AD — the precise moment this issue begins. Her elevation was politically calculated; Hadrian had long kept a cold distance from his wife, and the public honors granted through coinage served dynastic messaging rather than any personal warmth. The aurei of this period were struck at Rome under careful imperial supervision, their gold content tightly controlled as part of Hadrian's broader fiscal discipline across the provinces.
RIC II.3 2478 is among the issues attributable to the early Augusta coinage, before the later reverse types associated with her deification following her death around 136–137 AD.
