| Reverse description | The personification of Italia stands facing left in full figure, draped in a long chiton and palla, holding an upright sceptre in her right hand and a cornucopia overflowing with fruits in her left arm, symbolising the prosperity and centrality of the Italian peninsula within the empire. The figure is rendered in the classicising style typical of Hadrianic reverse types from the Rome mint. The reverse forms part of Hadrian's celebrated 'Provinces' and 'Italia' series, celebrating the geographic and symbolic importance of Italy. The field legend ITALIA appears to the left of the figure. |
