920/​225

Hadrian, 117–138, Sestertius, Rome, 127, RIC 636, C 342, 27.79 g, speckles of green patina - excelently struck with fine details and a lovely chocolate patina.

Whereas the reverse shows the personified Roma seated on a cuirass, the obverse is an impressive example of Roman portraiture at its best.
