| Reverse description | Bare or lightly draped bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, laureate, depicted from the rear or three-quarter perspective in a distinctive compositional variant known from this issue. The legend HADRIANVS AVG encircles the bust. This unusual facing arrangement, presenting the imperial portrait from behind or to the side, is a rare and noteworthy feature of this particular reverse type as catalogued under RIC II.3 2595. The surfaces are heavily corroded and encrusted, consistent with extended burial or environmental exposure, rendering finer engraving details largely illegible. |
