| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Hadrian facing right, rendered in fine high-relief hammered style characteristic of early Hadrianic coinage. The emperor's portrait displays his distinctive short curly beard and laureate wreath. The paludamentum (military cloak) is visible at the left shoulder, lending an imperial martial character to the effigy. The surrounding field carries the imperial titulature legend divided around the bust, reading from lower left in a continuous circular arrangement. |
