| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Hadrian facing right, rendered with characteristic short beard and deeply modelled facial features in the Hellenistic portrait tradition favoured during his reign. The emperor is depicted with paludamentum fastened at the shoulder, the drapery falling across the truncation of the bust. The encircling Latin legend reads HADRIANVS AVG COS III P P, disposed around the periphery of the flan. The portrait is executed with bold, high-relief modelling typical of Rome Mint bronzes of the later Hadrianic period. |
