| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Emperor Trajan facing right, depicted nude with an aegis draped over the left shoulder, rendered in the bold, high-relief style characteristic of Alexandrian provincial coinage. The emperor's effigy displays finely detailed curled hair beneath the laurel wreath, with strong facial features in profile. The Greek legend encircles the bust along the periphery of the flan, partially visible due to the irregular edge of the coin. The overall execution reflects the Alexandrian mint's distinctive provincial artistic tradition, combining Roman imperial iconography with local craftsmanship. |
