| Obverse description | Bare-shouldered, laureate bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with short beard rendered in fine stippled detail characteristic of his early portraiture. The emperor's hair is depicted in tightly curled locks beneath the laurel wreath, whose ties are visible at the nape of the neck. The circumferential legend IMP CAESAR TRAIAN HADRIANVS AVG runs clockwise around the field, identifying the emperor by his full imperial titulature. The portrait exhibits the confident, classicising style associated with the Rome mint under Hadrian, with strong facial modelling and a well-defined jaw. |
