| Reverse description | Two standing figures facing one another in the field, clasping right hands (dextrarum iunctio) at center, a gesture symbolizing dynastic concordance and legitimacy of succession. The figure on the left, rendered draped and slightly smaller, represents the deified Trajan or Roma, while the togate figure on the right represents Hadrian. The composition is set on a ground line, with the encircling legend distributed around the periphery of the irregularly shaped flan. The scene alludes to Hadrian's adoption by and continuity with his predecessor Trajan. |
