Ancient Rome 128-136AD Ceres Rev. Sabina Dupondius EF-AU (EF45)
Vibia Sabina (c. 83–136 CE) was the wife of Emperor Hadrian and empress of Rome during his reign. The grandniece of Emperor Trajan and daughter of Matidia, she was married to Hadrian in 100 CE, likely as part of a political alliance. Ancient sources suggest their marriage was strained and produced no children, but Sabina still played an important role in the imperial household. She accompanied Hadrian on some of his travels and was honored with numerous inscriptions, coins, and statues across the empire. After her death in 136 CE, Hadrian had her deified, securing her place among Rome’s revered imperial figures.
