Obverse description	Laureate bust of Emperor Trajan facing right, with an aegis visible on the left shoulder, rendered in the provincial Alexandrian style. The portrait displays the emperor's characteristic features with short hair beneath the laurel wreath. A Greek legend encircles the bust, running along the periphery of the flan. The flan is irregular and shows typical characteristics of Alexandrian bronze coinage of the period.

Reverse description	An eagle standing to the right, depicted with wings spread or partially folded, rendered in the characteristic style of Alexandrian provincial coinage. The regnal year date flanks the eagle in the field, with the lunate L (indicating 'year') to the left and the numeral ΙΔ (14) to the right. The composition is central within the flan, and the surface bears a dark olive-brown patina consistent with excavated Alexandrian bronze coinage.
