| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate bust of Emperor Trajan facing right, rendered in bold relief typical of Trajanic imperial portraiture. The emperor's effigy displays the characteristic strong-featured profile with a laurel wreath secured about the head. The draped paludamentum is visible at the truncation of the bust. The encircling legend runs clockwise around the obverse field, partially legible on this worn specimen. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Laureate and draped bust of Trajan facing right, with the paludamentum clearly visible over the left shoulder, a treatment associated with the heroic or divine imagery employed on Trajanic aes coinage. The bust is rendered in high relief with the aegis or drape falling from the left shoulder, encircled by a continuous Latin legend running around the periphery of the flan. The reverse type mirrors the obverse portrait convention, a rare duplication used on certain issues of RIC II 714. The coin exhibits an irregular, somewhat ragged flan edge characteristic of hand-struck Roman bronze production. |

Trajan's sixth consulship, referenced in this obverse legend, dates the piece to 112–117 AD — the final, most ambitious phase of his reign. These were the Dacian war years and their immediate aftermath, when Rome's treasury was briefly flush with plunder from Sarmizegetusa, and the mint output reflected it: volume production, confident dies, and a standardization of the aes coinage that wouldn't be matched until Hadrian's reforms.
RIC II 714 is among the more frequently encountered of Trajan's bronze issues, which makes condition the only meaningful variable for collectors working this emperor.
