| Obverse description | Laureate head of Hadrian facing right, rendered in the naturalistic portrait style typical of early Hadrianic provincial coinage. The emperor's features are finely detailed, with the characteristic short beard and laurel wreath. The legend runs around the periphery in Greek script, identifying Hadrian with his full imperial titulature. The abbreviation Π Π appears in the right field, denoting Pater Patriae (Father of the Fatherland). |
