The reverse of this coin commemorates the visit of Hadrian in the province of Iudaea in 130 AD. It is likely that the emperor ordered the refounding of Jerusalem as a Roman colony named Aelia Capitolina on this occastion. Soon after, the Bar Kochba-revolt broke out and Hadrian had to remain in the region until the final subjugation of the Jewish revolt in 135 AD.
