Nr. 88910877
This exceptional bronze sestertius of Emperor Hadrian, minted in 118 AD, weighs 25.57 grams and measures 33 mm in diameter. The coin’s rich green patina enhances its superb state of preservation, with both the obverse and reverse in outstanding condition. Hadrian’s portrait is particularly impressive, with intricate detail visible in his wavy hair and facial features, reflecting the fine craftsmanship of the Roman mint. Coins of this quality are rarely found with such sharp definition, making this a standout piece.
The reverse is equally well-preserved, featuring clear inscriptions and minimal wear. Minted early in Hadrian’s reign, this sestertius is a tangible link to a period when the emperor was establishing his authority and embarking on his famous travels across the empire. Hadrian’s legacy as a reformer and builder, as well as a promoter of culture, adds significant historical value to this coin. Its remarkable condition and connection to a pivotal era of Roman history make it a highly desirable addition to any collection.
