Overview

Historical significance

This piece is not an authentic ancient Roman coin. It is a modern game piece, fantasy replica, or promotional token. Genuine Roman coins of Hadrian depicting Britannia (such as the famous sestertii issued around 119-128 AD) are rare historical artifacts that commemorate Roman rule in Britain.

Obverse (front)

Laureate and bearded bust of Hadrian facing right, with the modern or fanciful legend HADRIANUS AUG COS III P P around the perimeter.

Reverse (back)

Seated figure of Britannia facing left, holding a spear and resting her arm on a shield, seated on rocks with the legend BRITANNIA above and S C in the exergue. Note the modern punch mark 'MEKU' near the center right.

Estimated value

$1 - $5

Mintage & rarity

Common modern novelty or game token

Authenticity & counterfeit red flags

Easily identified as a modern reproduction due to the overly bright modern metallic finish, incorrect font styles, modern stamp ('MEKU'), and the incongruity of pairing a Hadrian portrait with an explicit 'BRITANNIA S C' reverse style commonly associated with later or different historic revivals.
