Hadrian, 11 August 117 - 10 July 138 A.D.
|Ray| |Nouri| |Collection|, |Hadrian,| |11| |August| |117| |-| |10| |July| |138| |A.D.|, With this coin Hadrian is claiming to have given stability to the earth. Perhaps it refers to Hadrian's response to desolation caused by earthquakes at the commencement of his reign. Hadrian aided the provinces and cities with funding for repairs and some cities were splendidly rebuilt. Or perhaps it simply refers to political stability, prosperity and peace under his rule.
