Rx: FORTVNAE - REDVCI Fortuna Redux, veiled, seated left holding rudder and cornucopia. Cohen 783 (Paris). RIC 247. Bust var. of BM 648. About EF Ex Phillip Davis Collection The reverse type apparently refers to Hadrian`s return to Rome from his second great provincial tour in c. 132 AD. Rare with bust left on obverse: there were no such coins in the Reka Devnia hoard. This coin confirms Mattingly`s supposition that the specimen in Paris may show a fold of cloak on Hadrian`s shoulder, since Cohen 783 says "bust (not head) laureate left". BM 648 has simply head laureate left, without the fold of cloak. Strack 240 lists four specimens with head laureate left, including the one in Paris, but his bust codes do not distinguish between "head laureate" and "bust laureate, with fold of cloak (or aegis) on front shoulder"

Unpublished Eastern Denarius of Hadrian Hadrian. 117-138 AD. Denarius, 3.36g (12h). Eastern Mint, c. 130-1 AD. Obv: HADRIANVS - AVGVSTVS Bust laureate right, fold of cloak on front shoulder. Rx: COS above, I - I - I symmetrically below, Crescent moon with one star within and four more stars in a horizontal line above the crescent. There are also two dots, perhaps representing background stars, below the second star and between the third and fourth stars in the line of four. Apparently unpublished obverse-legend and reverse-type variant of Strack *49; BMC p. 380, 28; Cohen 464; and RIC 357 (wrongly under Rome). Toned EF This coin differs on both obverse and reverse from the rare known Eastern denarius of similar type, Strack *49 (3 specimens, all illustrated on his pl. XIX). On the obverse, our coin omits P P from the legend; HADRIANVS AVGVSTVS is a much rarer obverse legend on these Eastern denarii of Hadrian than HADRIANVS AVGVSTVS P P. The same obverse die was also used with the type COS III Sacrificial implements, Strack *16, pl. XX. On the reverse, the arrangement of the stars and the legend is different on our coin: in the known type the stars are arranged in three rows containing one, three, and one star respectively, and COS is written to the left, III to the right. On our coin in contrast there are only two rows of stars, containing four and one star respectively, and COS is written above, III below. Curiously, the reverse legend on our die was originally arranged differently, but was then altered in the die: traces of the eradicated letters C - O - S - I running counterclockwise are visible from 9 to 3 o`clock!
