Obverse description Bare-shouldered, laureate bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with finely detailed beard and curled hair rendered in high relief, characteristic of the mature Hadrianic portrait style. The draped paludamentum is visible at the truncation of the neck. The encircling legend reads HADRIANVS AVG COS III P P, distributed around the periphery of the flan within a beaded border.

Reverse description Standing figure of Hadrian in military dress facing right, extending his right hand to raise a kneeling personification of Hispania from the ground; Hispania, draped and kneeling left, offers an olive branch toward the emperor. Between the two figures, a rabbit crouches in the field — the traditional symbol of the Iberian Peninsula in Roman iconography. The exergue is plain, and the reverse legend RESTITVTORI HISPANIAE arcs across the upper field within a beaded border.
