| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of Lucius Aelius Caesar facing right, rendered with naturalistically curled hair and a short beard characteristic of Hadrianic-era portraiture. The effigy displays a strong, mature profile with fine sculptural detail in the facial features. The encircling legend reads L AELIVS CAESAR, distributed around the periphery of the coin field. The portrait is struck in the confident Roman imperial style typical of court-approved likenesses produced at the Rome mint under Hadrian. |
