Aanvullende informatie

Hadrian's third consulship, held from 119 AD, provided the dating anchor for this issue but the COS III titulature continued appearing on coinage well into the late 120s. By 128–129 Hadrian was deep into his second great provincial tour, having already traversed much of the eastern empire; the Rome mint was effectively producing his coinage in absentia, coordinating types through imperial instruction rather than direct supervision.

RIC II.3 #981 falls within the extensive Fortuna grouping of this period, a type produced across multiple die pairings with minor epigraphic variation.
