| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Trajan facing right, rendered in the characteristic provincial style of Pontic civic coinage. The emperor's effigy displays the laurel wreath, paludamentum visible at the shoulder, with bold relief typical of Amisene bronzes. A Greek imperial legend encircles the bust, running along the coin's periphery within a dotted border. The portrait conveys the idealized military authority of Trajan as conqueror, bearing his titles including ΓΕΡΜ(ΑΝΙΚΟϹ) and ΔΑΚΙΚΟϹ referencing his Germanic and Dacian victories. |
