Ancient Rome 130-131AD S3515 Hadrian Silver Denarius Uncirculated (MS60)

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.

Obverse: Laureate head of Hadrian, facing right, with the legend around.
Reverse: Pietas seated facing left, holding a patera and a sceptre, with the legend around.
