Commentary


Il s’agit bien d’un semis en orichalque (bronze). C’est l’une des raisons pour lesquelles ce type de bronze est attribué à l’atelier d’Antioche, en rapport avec les importantes émissions de la fin du règne de Trajan.
This is indeed an orichalcum (bronze) seed. This is one of the reasons why this type of bronze is attributed to the Antioch workshop, in connection with the large issues at the end of Trajan's reign.

Historical background


HADRIAN

(08/11/117-07/10/138)

Hadrian was born in 76 in Italica. Pupil of Trajan, he married in 100 Sabine, grand-niece of the emperor, and made a career in the staff of the latter, in particular during the Dacian campaign. In 117, he succeeded Trajan, and traveled for twenty years, visiting the entire empire - the only Emperor to have lent himself to this exercise. In 122, Hadrian went to Spain. Childless, he first chose Aélius to succeed him in 136, but the latter died on January 1, 138. Hadrian then adopted Antonin on February 25 and himself chose Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus as Antoninus' heirs. He died on July 10, 138.
