TYPE Greek Imperial, Hadrian (117-38 AD), bronze AE21 of Maroneia (Thrace) DESCRIPTION . Obv: Bare head of Hadrian to right, Greek legend [ADRIAN]OS KAISAR Rev: Capricorn, Greek legend MARONEITON (outwards) REFERENCE: Mu 3960 GRADING: F+ / AVF, bit rough olive green patina, slight highlights, very scarce ORDER INFO: R2794, $75 Greek imperial coinage from Maroneia is scarce - as opposed to earlier Greek autonomous issues, as well as colonial output in many neighboring cities throught Roman Thrace. However, a handful of emperors did strike coins there - though typically no more than a single type or two; the characteristic capricorn bronze is apparently the only recorded Hadrian type for this locale.
