| Reverse description | Hadrian on horseback, advancing to the right, his right hand raised in the adlocutio gesture of address or salutation toward the troops assembled before him. Three soldiers stand facing him, each bearing a legionary standard, rendered in a formal, hierarchical military composition. The scene belongs to the celebrated 'Exercitus' series of Hadrianic bronzes, commemorating the emperor's personal inspection tours of provincial armies. The senatorial authorization mark S C (Senatus Consultum) appears prominently in the field, flanking the central group, with the legend EXERCITVS RAETICVS distributed around the exergue and field. |
