Reverse description The Emperor Trajan, laureate and wearing the toga, stands upright in a quadriga advancing to the right, holding an eagle-tipped sceptre in one hand and a branch in the other. The four horses are shown in dynamic forward motion, evoking the triumphal imagery common to imperial Roman coinage. The regnal year legend appears in the field, rendered in Greek numerals. The composition reflects the Alexandrian mint's adaptation of Roman triumphal iconography within the framework of the Egyptian dating system.
