| Obverse description | Laureate bust of the Emperor Trajan facing right, depicted draped and cuirassed, the figure shown from the rear in the characteristic Alexandrian style. The portrait displays the emperor's characteristic features rendered in the provincial Egyptian manner, with the laurel wreath clearly distinguishable despite significant surface wear. The surrounding Greek legend, partially legible, runs along the periphery of the flan, attributing to Trajan his full titulature including his German and Dacian victory titles. The flan is irregular and shows heavy green patination consistent with long burial. |
