| Obverse description | Laureate bust of the emperor Trajan facing right, draped and cuirassed, with the paludamentum visible over the left shoulder, the bust presented three-quarter view from the rear in the characteristic Alexandrian fashion. The portrait displays finely rendered short hair beneath the laurel wreath, with a strong, idealized profile. A Greek legend encircles the effigy along the beaded border, partially legible on this specimen due to wear. The overall style reflects the skilled die-cutting traditions of the Alexandrian imperial mint under Trajan. |
