| Beschrijving keerzijde | The emperor Hadrian advances to the right, holding a baton or scroll in his right hand, leading a column of four soldiers in military dress; three or more legionary standards are visible behind the soldiers. To the rear of the group stands either a centurion carrying a vine rod or a trumpeter with a cornu. The scene commemorates Hadrian's celebrated tours of inspection of the Roman armies and embodies the Hadrianic virtue of military discipline. The exergue is plain, with the abbreviated legend divided in the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The DISCIPLIN AVG reverse type belongs to a programmatic series Hadrian issued to celebrate the virtues of the Roman army, likely tied to his extensive provincial inspection tours of the late 120s and early 130s. Hadrian was famously hands-on with military discipline — he personally reviewed training standards, slept in the open with troops, and imposed strict regulations on camp life that earlier emperors had allowed to lapse. The coinage was propaganda in the most literal sense: a public statement that the emperor had personally seen to the army's fitness.
