Aversbeschreibung Radiate bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with short beard and draped paludamentum visible at the shoulder truncation, rendered in confident late Trajanic-Hadrianic portraiture style. The emperor is depicted with his characteristic close-cropped curled hair surmounted by the radiate crown of seven pointed spikes, distinguishing the dupondius denomination from the as. The encircling Latin legend reads HADRIANVS AVGVSTVS around the periphery, with a beaded border framing the design. The portrait exhibits strong, naturalistic modelling of the facial features, consistent with the official Hadrianic coin portrait type established following his accession in AD 117.

Zusätzliche Informationen

Hadrian's third consulship, held from 119 AD, provided the dating formula used on this issue, though the coins themselves were struck several years into that tenure. The Pegasus type belongs to a broader program of "zodiac" and mythological bronzes issued under Hadrian that numismatists have long associated with his well-documented personal interest in astrology and Greek philosophy — the winged horse carried specific Bellerophon associations in the Greek east that would have appealed directly to his philhellenic sensibility.

The COS III exergue placement noted in RIC II.3 #746 is an occasional die variant, not a consistent feature of the issue.
