| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed, draped bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with his characteristic short beard rendered in fine detail and hair swept back in naturalistic waves. The emperor's effigy is depicted with strong, individualized portraiture typical of Hadrianic coinage, showing the drapery of the paludamentum at the truncation of the bust. The encircling Latin legend reads HADRIANVS AVGVSTVS, distributed around the field within a plain border, with a beaded rim framing the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hadrian's third consulship, held from 119 AD, provided the dating formula used on this issue well into the mid-120s. Unlike many emperors who treated the consulship as an annual honor to be refreshed, Hadrian accepted it only three times and declined further iterations — a deliberate posture of Republican restraint that his predecessor Trajan had not practiced with equal consistency.
RIC II.3 #739 belongs to the revised second edition scholarship that substantially reorganized Hadrian's enormous bronze output, which had previously been poorly sequenced in the original RIC II.
