| Reversbeschreibung | The river god Nilus reclines to the left, resting upon a crocodile that serves as his support, in the manner typical of Alexandrian provincial issues celebrating Egypt's fertile inundation. The deity holds a tall reed in his raised right hand and a cornucopia in his left arm, symbolising the abundance brought by the Nile's annual flood. The regnal date legend appears in the upper left field. The entire design is contained within a beaded border, and the broad flan displays the characteristic greenish-brown patina of Egyptian provincial bronze coinage. |

Regnal year 16 of Trajan's reign corresponds to 112–113 AD, a moment when Alexandria's mint was operating at considerable volume to supply Egypt's cash economy. The Egyptian provincial bronze series ran on its own dating system — the regnal year expressed in Greek numerals on the reverse — entirely independent of the Roman consular calendar used elsewhere in the empire. Egypt remained a monetarily isolated province by deliberate imperial policy; its coinage could not legally circulate outside the province, forcing exchange at the border.
The Æ35 is among the larger denominations in the Trajanic Alexandrian sequence, corresponding roughly to the diobol or larger fractions within the tetradrachm-based system.
