Beschrijving voorzijde Bare-shouldered, laureate bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, rendered with characteristic realism and fine die-cutting typical of the Trajanic-Hadrianic workshop. The emperor's facial features display a short beard and strong profile, consistent with his mature portraiture from the late 120s AD. The circular legend surrounds the effigy, reading HADRIANVS AVGVSTVS P P, with letters disposed across the upper and lower fields. The flan is slightly irregular at the edges, as is typical of hammered silver coinage of this period.

Beschrijving keerzijde The personification of Clementia, the Roman virtue of mercy and mildness, stands in a full-length figure facing left, clad in a long draped chiton and himation. In her extended right hand she holds a patera, the shallow libation bowl associated with sacrificial ritual, while her left hand grasps a tall vertical sceptre resting against her shoulder. The figure is rendered in the classicizing style favoured under Hadrian, with fine drapery folds visible across the body. The legend CLEMENTIA AVG is disposed across the upper field, with COS III appearing in the exergue below the figure's feet.
