This coin is from late in Hadrian's reign (117 to 138 CE). Hadrian, the third of the Five Good Emperors, built one of the Roman Empire's most lasting monuments: Hadrian's wall, across northern England, as well as rebuilding the Pantheon and constructing the Temple of Venus and Roma. Hadrian famously traveled across the Empire, visiting nearly all of its provinces, and the figure of him on horseback on this coin speaks to his adventurous spirit and martial prowess.
