Hadrian. AD 117-138. Æ Sestertius (33mm, 26.78 g, 5h). Rome mint. Struck circa AD 124-128. Laureate bust right, slight drapery / Diana Venatrix ('Huntress') standing right, holding arrow and bow. RIC II 631b; Banti 177. Good VF, green-brown patina, smoothed and tooled, scratches.

Since Hadrian demonstrated his bravery by hunting rather than warfare, he favored the cult of the goddess Diana.
