| Beschrijving keerzijde | The personification of Pietas stands in the field facing left, veiled and draped in a long stola and palla, her right hand raised in a gesture of supplication or adoration. The figure is rendered in a classical, static pose befitting a divine virtue, occupying the central field. The legend PIETAS appears in the field to either side of the figure, while the longer imperial titulature is distributed in a continuous band around the coin's periphery within a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Struck in 117 AD, the year Hadrian succeeded Trajan, this denarius belongs to a politically charged first emission designed to establish legitimacy. Hadrian's adoption by Trajan was disputed — announced only after Trajan's death in Cilicia, with the deathbed adoption widely suspected to have been engineered by Trajan's wife Plotina. The DIVI TRAIAN AVG F title, proclaiming Hadrian son of the deified Trajan, was the cornerstone of that claim.
The Parthicus title was quietly dropped by Hadrian shortly after issue — he abandoned Trajan's eastern conquests almost immediately, a decision that scandalized Rome's military class.
