| Reverse description | A triumphal arch depicted in three-quarter frontal view, featuring a large central arched passageway flanked by two smaller lateral arches, the whole structure articulated with engaged columns and entablature. Atop the monument stands a quadriga driven by a statue of the Emperor, commemorating his Parthian triumph. The date regnal year legend L Κ (year 20) appears in the field to the right of the arch. The architectural type is closely associated with Trajan's Parthian campaign commemorations as rendered by the Alexandrian mint. |
