| Beschrijving keerzijde | Standing figural group in military-allegorical composition: Emperor Trajan, laureate and clad in military dress, stands facing left, holding a long sceptre in his right hand. To his right, the personification of Roma stands facing left, her right arm raised in a gesture of salutation or acclamation, and her left hand holding a parazonium (short military sword). A shield is depicted to the far right of the composition. The regnal year legend L ΙϚ (Year 16) appears in the field, anchoring the coin to the Alexandrian era dating system. |

Year 16 of Trajan's reign corresponds to 112–113 AD, placing this issue squarely within the period of his Parthian ambitions and the massive logistical build-up that preceded the eastern campaigns. Alexandria's mint was among the most productive provincial operations in the empire, running a parallel regnal dating system — the Egyptian calendar year — entirely distinct from Rome's consular reckoning. That autonomous dating practice is why Alexandrian bronzes can often be pinpointed more precisely than their Roman counterparts.
The Æ34 module was among the largest produced by the Alexandrian mint in this period, typically reserved for issues intended to carry substantial iconographic weight rather than purely transactional use.
