| Reverse description | Standing figure of Roma facing left, helmeted and draped, extending her right hand in a welcoming gesture and holding a spear or sceptre in her left hand, personifying the city's reception of the emperor during his adventus ceremony. The composition references Hadrian's celebrated provincial tours and his formal arrival in Rome. The field bears the senatorial authorization mark S C (Senatus Consultum) flanking the central figure, with the legend ADVENTVS AVG disposed around the periphery. The reverse suffers from heavy wear and encrustation, though the standing figure and the characteristic attributes remain identifiable. |
