| Obverse description | Bare-headed, bearded bust of Hadrian facing right, rendered with the characteristic short curled hair and close-cropped beard that distinguished his portraiture from earlier clean-shaven emperors. The effigy is depicted with naturalistic sculptural detail, the truncation of the neck visible at the coin's lower field. A beaded border frames the design, with the Latin legend distributed around the periphery. The portrait exemplifies the Hellenizing artistic style favored under Hadrian's reign. |
