Reverse description Draped bust of Nilus facing right, the personification of the Nile River depicted with characteristic attributes: a taenia (fillet) and lotus-buds crowning the head, a reed visible at the shoulder, and a cornucopia placed before the bust. The composition reflects the Alexandrian mint's longstanding tradition of honouring the Nile as a symbol of Egypt's agricultural abundance. The regnal date L Ε (Year 5) appears in the field, corresponding to the fifth year of Trajan's reign in the Egyptian calendar (101–102 AD).
