Description: This is an opportunity to own a truly rare piece of history minted in 134/135 AD in Cappadocia Caesarea. This is a genuine coin of Hadrian, struck in bronze, and in the exact condition you see pictured. It features a portrait of Hadrian on the obverse with legend and Mount Argaeus with stars and legend on the reverse. This is a coin that has been sought after by collectors for years. It is a chance to own one that is guaranteed authentic. Grading is subjective. In my opinion, this coin is F. This coin type is RPC III 3156. There are two versions of 3156 and normally, RPC would make there be a version A and a version B. The first version has a wreath over Mount Argaeus. There are 3 of these cited. The second version has stars over Mount Argaeus. There is one specimen cited. This would make two. This coin was also struck under the time frame of the last part of the Bar Kochba revolt.
