| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Hadrian facing right, rendered in high relief with finely detailed curly hair and a characteristic full beard, a hallmark of Hadrianic portraiture that broke with earlier clean-shaven imperial tradition. The emperor's paludamentum is visible at the shoulder, secured with a fibula at the chest. A plain inner border frames the effigy, with a beaded outer border running around the coin's circumference. The obverse legend encircles the portrait, reading IMP CAESAR TRAIAN HADRIANVS AVG. |
