| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate bust of Emperor Trajan facing right, depicted nude with an aegis draped over the left shoulder, rendered in the characteristic Roman imperial portrait style of the Alexandrian mint. The emperor's strong profile features a close-cropped laureate wreath, with finely detailed hair rendered in short parallel strokes. The Greek imperial legend encircles the bust along the periphery of the flan, reading partially around the field. The overall style reflects the distinctive provincial coinage tradition of Roman Egypt, combining Roman portraiture conventions with local Alexandrian craftsmanship. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Year 13 of Trajan's reign in Egypt corresponds to 109–110 AD, a period when Alexandria's mint was operating at high volume to support the emperor's preparations for the Dacian settlement and early Parthian ambitions. Alexandrian bronze coinage of this era was struck on a regnal-year system unique to Egypt — a Roman province treated as the emperor's personal estate, its mint answerable to imperial fiscal administration rather than the Senate. The LΙΓ date formula is the Egyptian way of expressing that year, lambda-iota-gamma in Greek.
