| Reverse description | The goddess Ceres depicted standing left in full figure, draped in a long stola, holding a bundle of grain ears extended in her right hand and a tall vertical torch in her left hand, emblematic of her dominion over grain, harvest, and fertility. The letters S C (Senatus Consultum) appear prominently in the field to either side of the goddess, denoting senatorial authority for the issue. The peripheral legend P M TR P COS III is distributed around the beaded border, referencing Hadrian's priestly and consular titles. |
