Reverse description A standing female figure, identified as Aequitas (personification of equity and fair measure), is depicted in the central field facing left, draped in a long stola and paludamentum. She extends her right hand forward holding a set of scales (libra), emblematic of fair dealing and monetary integrity, while her left arm rests at her side holding a long vertical rod or hasta. To the left of the figure, a rectangular modius or monetary standard symbol is visible in the lower field, alluding to the Moneta aspect referenced in the coin's title. The reverse legend P M TR P COS III is distributed in the field around the periphery within a beaded border, recording Hadrian's offices as Pontifex Maximus, holder of tribunician power, and consul for the third time.
