| Reverse description | Ares, god of war, stands in three-quarter view facing right, holding a parazonium (short sword) in one hand and a spear in the other. To the right, Athena stands facing left, armed with a round shield and spear, her stance conveying divine protection. The pairing of Ares and Athena on this reverse likely alludes to Trajan's martial victories and the divine sanction of his military campaigns. The regnal date appears in the field to the right. The figures are rendered in the broad, confident style typical of high-quality Alexandrian bronze coinage of the early second century. |
