| Reverse description | The divine twins, the Dioscuri (Castor and Pollux), depicted in full military attire standing face-to-face at the centre of the field, each holding a long spear in the outer hand. The two figures are clad in short military tunics (chitoniskos) with cuirasses, and wear Phrygian-style or crested helmets; their postures are symmetric and frontal, creating a heraldic composition typical of Alexandrian civic coinage. The regnal year legend is divided across the field, with L to the left and ΙϚ to the right, identifying this issue as year 16 of Trajan's reign. A dotted border frames the design. |
