| Reverse description | The personification of Hispania reclines to the left across rocky ground, her body semi-draped, extending an olive branch forward in her right hand. A rabbit, the emblematic animal of the Iberian Peninsula as known to the Romans, is depicted at her feet or to the right among the rocks, serving as a geographical symbol of the province. The reverse forms part of Hadrian's celebrated 'Provinces' series, commemorating the emperor's travels and his celebrated visit to the Iberian Peninsula. The exergual area is plain, with the reverse legend HISPANIA flanked by the senatorial authority mark S C distributed in the field. |
