| Reverse description | Hadrian standing right, extending his right hand in greeting toward Felicitas, the personification of prosperity and good fortune, who stands left holding a caduceus in her left hand. The scene is rendered in the classical allegorical style characteristic of second-century imperial bronzes, emphasising the emperor's role as guarantor of the empire's felicity. The senatorial mark of authority S C (Senatus Consultum) appears prominently in the field, flanking the figural group. The reverse legend is disposed around the upper periphery of the coin. |
