Beschrijving keerzijde Standing female figure of Pietas facing left in the central field, rendered in draped robes, her arms raised in a gesture of supplication or adoration. The figure is depicted in the classical Roman devotional pose, holding both hands upward, evoking religious reverence. A dotted border runs along the inner edge of the coin. The reverse legend P M TR P COS III is distributed around the field, with partial lettering visible on the left (P M) and right (COS III) sides of the figure. The composition is well-centred for a hammered issue, and the type references Hadrian's priestly and constitutional titles held during his third consulship.

Aanvullende informatie

Struck in Hadrian's third consulship, this issue dates to the opening phase of his reign when he was still consolidating authority after the controversial executions of four senior senators — men who had served Trajan and whom Hadrian almost certainly ordered killed, though he publicly blamed the Senate. The Pietas type belongs to a broader programmatic effort to project piety and constitutional legitimacy precisely because both were in question.
