| Reverse description | Fortuna, the goddess of fortune, standing left in full figure, draped in flowing robes, holding a ship's rudder in her right hand directed downward and a cornucopia in her left hand, symbolizing prosperity and good fortune. A column is depicted behind the figure, against which Fortuna leans slightly, adding depth to the composition. The reverse legend P M TR P COS III is distributed in the field around the deity, referencing Hadrian's principal offices of state. The style is consistent with the accomplished reverse engraving of the Roman mint during the early reign of Hadrian. |
