| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, rendered with characteristic curly hair and short beard, conveying the Hellenistic intellectual ideal cultivated by Hadrian throughout his reign. The portrait is executed in fine high relief, with naturalistic modelling of facial features typical of early Hadrianic coinage. A circular legend in Latin runs along the entire periphery of the flan, framed by an inner border of fine beading. The effigy occupies the central field with commanding presence, the drapery visible at the base of the truncation. |
