| Obverse description | Bare-headed, bearded bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with drapery visible on the left shoulder, rendered in the characteristic Hellenistic portrait style adopted during his reign. The emperor's curly hair and full beard are rendered with fine detail, a hallmark of Hadrianic portraiture. The Latin legend encircles the bust, running from lower left to upper right around the field. The effigy is modelled in high relief with naturalistic facial features conveying imperial authority. |
