| Reverse description | The emperor Hadrian on horseback advancing to the right, his right hand raised in an adlocutio gesture addressing his troops. Before him stand three soldiers bearing military standards, depicted in a formal review composition typical of the Roman 'exercitus' sestertius series. The legend EXER CAPPADOCIVS identifies the scene as Hadrian's address to the Cappadocian army, with S C (Senatus Consultum) flanking the exergual area, authorizing the bronze issue. |
