| Obverse description | Bare-headed and draped bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with his characteristic short curly hair and full beard rendered in fine detail. The emperor is depicted with a mature, slightly idealized physiognomy consistent with official Hadrianic portraiture of the period. The circumferential legend HADRIANVS AVGVSTVS runs around the periphery of the flan. The coin displays a dark olive-brown patina with areas of green encrustation typical of well-circulated Roman orichalcum or aes coinage from the early second century AD. |
