Beschrijving keerzijde Concordia, goddess of harmony, is depicted seated left on a throne, draped in a flowing stola, holding a patera in her extended right hand and a double cornucopiae in her left. A small figure of Spes (Hope) stands at right before her, facing left. The legend P M TR P COS III is distributed in the field to the left and right, while CONCORD appears in the exergue below the throne. The reverse composition reflects the Hadrianic emphasis on civic harmony and dynastic stability, executed in the restrained classicising style prevalent at the Rome Mint in the early 120s AD.

Aanvullende informatie

Hadrian's early joint consulship issues reflect a deliberate propaganda campaign following Trajan's death in 117 AD and a succession that many in the Senate viewed with deep suspicion — four consulars were executed almost immediately, an event Hadrian attributed to Attianus but which damaged his standing regardless. The pairing of Concordia and Spes on a single reverse was not decorative whimsy; it was a pointed message about dynastic harmony and future expectation during a reign still working to establish its legitimacy.

RIC II.3 549 belongs to the comprehensive 2007 revision of the earlier Mattingly-Sydenham volume, which substantially reorganized Hadrianic coinage chronology.
