| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Trajan facing right, viewed from the rear, rendered in the provincial Egyptian style typical of Alexandrian coinage. The portrait displays the characteristic strong facial features associated with Trajanic portraiture, with the laurel wreath clearly delineated around the head. The obverse legend encircles the bust in Greek characters, identifying the emperor with his full titulature. The flan is broad and slightly irregular, consistent with hammered bronze provincial coinage of the period. |
