| Reverse description | The personification of Libertas (Liberty) is depicted seated left on a high-backed throne or chair of state, her body draped in a flowing stola and palla. She extends an olive branch forward in her right hand and holds a long vertical sceptre or rod in her left hand. The abbreviated legend P M TR P COS III encircles the upper field, while LIB PVB appears in the exergue below the seated figure, separated by a dotted border. The reverse type reflects Hadrian's early-reign propagandistic emphasis on civic liberty and public freedom. |
