| Obverse description | Draped and laureate bust of Emperor Hadrian facing left, with bare chest and traces of drapery visible on the far shoulder. The effigy presents a mature, idealized portrait characteristic of Hadrianic court art, with the laureate wreath rendered in fine detail. The encircling legend is deeply struck in prominent Latin capital letters within the outer field. The portrait conveys authority and imperial gravitas consistent with official Roman state coinage of the early Hadrianic period. |
