| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, half-length nude bust of the emperor Trajan facing right, with an aegis draped over the left shoulder. The portrait is rendered in the naturalistic Roman imperial style characteristic of Alexandrian civic coinage. The obverse legend encircles the bust in Greek characters, naming Trajan with his imperial titles. The aegis, an attribute typically associated with divine or military power, distinguishes this portrait type within the Trajanic Alexandrian series. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Nilus, personification of the Nile river, stands facing left, holding a reed in one hand and a cornucopia in the other, emblematic of the river's life-giving fertility. To his right stands Euthenia, the personification of abundance and prosperity, also facing left, extending a wreath in her raised hand and holding ears of grain. The pairing of these two allegorical figures is a distinctly Alexandrian motif celebrating the agricultural wealth of Egypt. The regnal year date appears in the field in Greek numerals. The composition reflects the high quality of reverse iconography typical of Trajanic Alexandrian tetradrachm-sized bronzes. |
