IMP CAESAR TRAIAN HADRIANVS AVG, Laureate head right.

PM TR P COS III, S-C, Pax standing, head left, holding olive branch and cornucopia.

8.6 g; 26 mm dia; 6h.

This coin was issued during Hadrian's tour of the Western part of the Empire. It showcased what Hadrian had brought to the Empire - peace.

COS III, S-C, Minerva, helmeted, advancing right, brandishing raised spear in right hand, holding round shield in left.

10.6 g; 24x25.5 mm; 5h.

According to RIC this Minerva as commemorates Hadrian's return from the East and the wise dealings he had with his Parthian adversaries - in other words managing to avoid war with the Parthians through the successful conference on the Euphrates in late AD 123.

Hadrian RIC-0820 As Galley6 viewsRome mint, AD 125 - 126/7, Group 5.

HADRIANVS AVGVSTVS, Laureate head right.

COS III, Galley right. SC in exergue.

8.7 g; 26 mm dia; 5h.

This coin was issued at the same time as the Neptune sestertii and commemorated Hadrian's return to Rome in AD 125. Hadrians was in the East in AD 123 - 124 and spent the winter of 124/125 in Athens. He then returned, via Sicily, during the sailing season of 125. It was therefore likely struck in late 125.

This coin is on an irregular-shaped flan and is slightly off-set. It might not be an official issue.

Hadrian RIC-0881(A2) As Salus 6 viewsRome mint, AD 126 - 127, Group 6.

HADRIANVS AVGVSTVS, Laureate head right, trace of drapery on far (left) shoulder. (A2)

COS III, S-C, Salus standing right, holding snake in right hand and feeding it from patera held in left.

9.7 g; 26.5x27.5 mm; 5h.

This coin was dedicated to Hadrian's well-being and health. RIC notes a reference in the history of Cassius Dio, otherwise undated, to an injury - a broken collar-bone - during a hunting expedition. RIC notes a suggestion by Birley that the many Salus types struck around this time might mean that the injury can likely be dated to AD 126 - 127. Unlike the more common images of Salus feeding snake which has wrapped itself around an altar, this design strikes me as appearing somewhat desperate - it almost looks as if instead of waiting for the snake to feed it has been picked up and presented directly with food. You can lead a snake to the patera........

HILARITAS PR, S-C, Hilaritas standing left holding long palm branch and cornucopia, two children at her feet. COS III in exergue.

11.0 g; 27x28 mm; 6h.

This coin was issued to celebrate (with hilaritas or rejoicing) the return of Hadrian in AD 128 from his brief trip to Sicily and Africa. Hadrian's trip to those province would have, among other things, inspected two of Rome's most significant grain producing regions.

Hadrian RIC-0243 Sestertius Felicitas6 viewsRome mint, AD 119 - mid-120, Group 1b.

IMP CAESAR TRAIANVS HA-DRIANVS AVG, Laureate head right with upper part of shoulders (though it is hard to tell if there are traces of drapery on far shoulder, due to the corrosion/die damage spot, this is unlikely as on most examples the drapery is visible by the neck-shoulder bend which is visible on this coin and shows no sign of drapery).

PONT MAX TR POT COS III, S-C, Felicitas standing, head left, holding short caduceus and cornucopia.

22.7 g; 32x34 mm; 6h.

This type represents happiness or joy (felicitas) and was likely struck in AD 120 in the lead up to Hadrian's quinquennalia the next year.

Of interest on this coin: The reverse figure of Elagabalus seems to have two elbows on his right arm. This makes the arm appear to have three parts to it rather than two.
