Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Hadrian facing left, rendered with finely detailed curling hair and a characteristic full beard, the drapery visible over the left shoulder. The effigy is portrayed in left-facing profile with strong sculptural modeling, displaying the emperor's mature physiognomy with notable naturalism. The circular legend runs along the outer border of the coin field, interrupted by the truncation of the bust at the lower register. The portrait exhibits the high artistic quality associated with the Rome mint workshops under Hadrian, reflecting Hellenistic influence in its treatment of the hair and beard.

Beschrijving keerzijde A Roman galley under full oar proceeds to the left across stylized waves, rendered in considerable detail with a bank of oars visible along the hull and an ornate stern curving upward to the right. At the prow, a decorative figurehead — identifiable as Pegasus or a comparable device — projects forward, while at the stern a large palm branch or aquatic plant rises prominently above the ship. The legend FELICITATI AVG is inscribed in the upper field above the vessel, with COS III PP flanking and below the ship, and S C placed to either side in the lower field, all within a beaded border. The composition celebrates the felicity and maritime prowess of the Augustan reign, likely commemorating Hadrian's extensive sea voyages throughout the Empire.
