| Obverse description | Bare-headed, draped and cuirassed bust of Emperor Hadrian facing right, with his characteristic short curly hair and full beard rendered in fine sculptural detail. The effigy displays the emperor's mature portrait type as developed in the later years of his reign, with a slightly idealized but naturalistic treatment. The circumferential Latin legend runs clockwise around the portrait within a beaded border. |
