Brilliant and wise, a man of culture and talent, Hadrian ruled Rome during her Golden Age. Perhaps the person who first held this coin so long ago actually saw the emperor ride by in triumph, or visited the magnificent Pantheon he built in Rome, or the library at Athens. The individual who wears this radiant denarius in its golden setting today will touch directly upon the vanished splendor that was Rome. - (FJ.2925)
