| Beschrijving keerzijde | Laureate bust of Emperor Trajan facing right, draped on the left shoulder, set within a continuous Latin legend along the coin's circumference enclosed by a beaded border. The portrait is rendered in the confident, realistic style typical of Rome's mint output under Trajan, with the laurel wreath clearly defined atop tightly curled hair. The drapery falling over the left shoulder distinguishes this reverse bust type from the bare-shouldered obverse variant. The plain field frames the bust without additional devices or exergual markings. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Trajan's Dacian wars — two separate campaigns fought between 101–102 and 105–106 AD — ended with the annexation of Dacia as a Roman province, an outcome celebrated obsessively across his coinage and most visibly preserved today in Trajan's Column. The DAC in this obverse legend dates the coin to after the second Dacian triumph, awarded in 107 AD. The fifth consulship narrows the window further: COS V ran from 103 onward.
Bronze aes coinage under Trajan was struck in quantity at Rome to supply a cash economy expanding with Dacian gold — the Transylvanian mines reportedly funded much of his subsequent building program.
