| Obverse description | Laureate, cuirassed bust of Hadrian facing right, portrayed with the emperor's characteristic full beard and curly hair rendered in fine relief. The effigy is depicted from a frontal perspective with the cuirass visible at the truncation of the shoulder. A continuous Latin legend encircles the bust along the beaded border of the flan. The portrait conveys the classicizing Hellenistic aesthetic favored during Hadrian's reign, with naturalistic facial modeling and crisp die engraving typical of the Rome mint in this period. |
