Reverse description A Roman war galley (navis) depicted sailing left, shown in profile with detailed rendering of the oars extending below the hull, a curved stern ornament (aplustre) rising at the rear, and a small cabin or deck structure amidships. The prow terminates in a ram (rostrum). The legend encircles the design in the outer field, referencing Hadrian's priestly and magisterial titles. The naval imagery may allude to Hadrian's extensive travels and interest in maritime affairs.
