Obverse lettering IMP CAES DIVI TRA PARTH F DIVI NER NEP TRAIANO HADRIANO AVG
(Translation: Imperator, Caesar, Divi Traiani Parthici Filius, Divi Nervae Nepos, Traiano Hadriano Augustus. Supreme commander (Imperator), Caesar, son of divine Trajan, conqueror of the Parthians, grand-son of divine Nerva, Trajan Hadrian, emperor (Augustus).)
Reverse description The personification of Concordia is depicted seated left upon a high-backed throne, extending a patera in her right hand and resting her left arm upon a standing figure of Spes (Hope). A cornucopia is visible beneath the throne, serving as an additional symbol of abundance and prosperity. The composition is framed by the reverse legend distributed across the upper and lower field, with SC (Senatus Consultum) prominently placed in the lower exergual area, authorizing the bronze coinage. The scene reflects the Hadrianic ideological program emphasizing harmony and civic virtue at the outset of his reign.
