| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Hadrian facing right, rendered in the characteristic Hadrianic style with a short curled beard — the first Roman emperor to wear a full beard as a regular portrait feature. The effigy displays finely articulated drapery over the paludamentum fastened at the right shoulder. The circumferential Latin legend reads HADRIANVS AVGVSTVS, distributed around the periphery of the flan. The portrait reflects the high relief and naturalistic sculptural quality typical of Hadrianic coinage from the Rome Mint. |
