Beschrijving keerzijde The personification of Justitia (Justice) is depicted seated to the left upon a throne or chair of state, her figure rendered in the classical style typical of Hadrianic imperial coinage. She extends her right hand holding a patera, and grasps a long vertical sceptre in her left hand. The exergue bears the senatorial authority mark S C (Senatus Consultum), while the surrounding legend arcs around the upper and lateral fields of the coin.

Aanvullende informatie

Hadrian's third consulship began in 119 AD and he never held a fourth, which anchors this issue precisely within his middle reign. The IVSTITIA AVG types belong to a sustained programmatic coinage celebrating abstract virtues — Justice, Equity, Clemency — that Hadrian deployed with unusual consistency, likely tied to his sweeping legal reforms and his well-documented habit of personally hearing provincial appeals during his extensive imperial tours. The S C authorization confirms senatorial bronze, struck at Rome while Hadrian was arguably spending more time outside Italy than any emperor before him.
