| Additional information |
Year 15 of Trajan's reign corresponds to 111–112 AD, a moment when Alexandria's mint was producing heavily for a province flush with imperial attention — Trajan's Parthian ambitions were drawing enormous logistical focus toward the East, and Egypt's grain and administrative apparatus were central to that mobilization. Alexandrian bronzes of this regnal year are not rare, but individual dies show considerable variation in execution quality, reflecting the pressure of volume production.
