Reverse description Standing female figure personifying the province of Cappadocia, depicted facing left in military or provincial attire, wearing a turreted crown, and holding a vexillum (military standard) in her right hand and a second object, possibly a parazonium or branch, in her left hand. This reverse type belongs to Hadrian's celebrated 'Provinces' series, commemorating the emperor's extensive travels throughout the empire. The legend CAPPADOCIA is distributed in the field, with the senatorial authority mark S C (Senatus Consultum) flanking the central figure to either side. The composition is characteristic of the provincial allegory types struck at Rome between 130 and 133 AD.
