Ancient Rome 117-138AD S3529 Rev. Galley Hadrian Silver Denarius EF-AU (EF45)
Emperor Hadrian (76–138 CE), born Publius Aelius Hadrianus, ruled Rome from 117 to 138 CE and is best known for consolidating and securing the empire rather than expanding its borders. Born in Italica, Spain, he was a skilled administrator and a patron of the arts, architecture, and Greek culture, earning a reputation as one of the most cultured Roman emperors. Hadrian traveled extensively throughout the provinces, strengthening defenses, improving infrastructure, and fostering loyalty among provincial populations. He is particularly famous for commissioning Hadrian’s Wall in Britain, a massive fortification marking the northern boundary of Roman territory. His reign combined military prudence, architectural achievement, and cultural patronage, leaving a lasting legacy of stability, sophistication, and imperial vision.
