Commentary


Grand buste héroïque avec grand pan de paludamentum. Il revient à l’école anglaise et aux travaux de P. V. Hill, The dating and arrangement of the Undated Coins of Rome AD. 98-148, Londres 1970, d’avoir reclassé les différentes émissions de l’atelier de Rome, grâce à la théorie des cycles et d’avoir mis en lumière l’organisation de l’atelier de Rome qui travaille en officines et non pas en fonction du métal comme l’avaient décrit les numismates du XIXe siècle. Épigraphie très fine et détaillée. Portrait tout à fait exceptionnel pour ce type de monnayage. Semble beaucoup plus rare que ne le laissent paraître les différents ouvrages généraux.
Large heroic bust with a large section of paludamentum. It is the English school and the work of PV Hill, The dating and arrangement of the Undated Coins of Rome AD. 98-148, London 1970, which reclassified the various issues of the Roman mint, thanks to the theory of cycles and to having highlighted the organization of the Roman mint which worked in officinae and not according to the metal as the numismatists of the 19th century had described. Very fine and detailed epigraphy. A truly exceptional portrait for this type of coinage. Seems much rarer than the various general works suggest.

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.
