Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, the drapery visible over the left shoulder. The emperor is depicted with his characteristic short beard and curly hair beneath the laurel wreath, rendered in the realistic portraiture style typical of Hadrianic coinage. The encircling legend runs clockwise around the periphery of the flan. The die work displays the refined engraving quality associated with the Roman imperial mint under Hadrian.

Aanvullende informatie

The ASIA series belongs to Hadrian's famous provincial travel coinage, a group issued to commemorate his extensive tours of the empire's regions — journeys unprecedented in scale for a reigning emperor. Hadrian visited Asia Minor twice, in 123–124 and again around 129, inspecting cities, disbursing benefactions, and personally overseeing civic projects. These coins were almost certainly struck in Rome rather than in the provinces themselves, functioning as imperial propaganda disseminated back through the territories he had walked.

RIC II.3 1509 is among the more frequently encountered types in the series, suggesting a substantial original issue.
