| Obverse description | Laureate draped bust of Hadrian facing right, with paludamentum visible at the truncation. The emperor's portrait displays the characteristic short curled beard and hair rendered in finely modeled locks, consistent with the Hadrianic style of the early 120s AD. The encircling legend reads IMP CAESAR TRAIAN HADRIANVS AVG, distributed around the bust in capital Latin lettering. The flan is irregular and somewhat broad, typical of early Hadrianic silver coinage struck at the Rome Mint. |
