| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Hadrian facing right, rendered in high relief with finely detailed hair and beard characteristic of Hadrianic portraiture. The emperor wears a laurel wreath and a paludamentum fastened at the shoulder, with the cuirass visible at the truncation. The circumferential legend runs along the outer border of the flan. The portrait conveys the idealised yet individualistic Antonine style prevalent in Roman imperial coinage of the early second century AD. |
