| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Emperor Trajan facing right, depicted nude with an aegis draped over the left shoulder, rendered in the bold portraiture style characteristic of Alexandrian provincial coinage. The imperial effigy is strongly modelled with individualistic facial features. The obverse legend encircles the bust, giving the emperor's titles in Greek characters. |
