Reverse description Confronted busts of the deified Trajan and Plotina, each elevated on the reverse field: to the left, the draped bust of Plotina facing right, her hair arranged in a characteristic queue; to the right, the draped bust of Trajan facing left, viewed from the rear or side. A star appears above each bust, symbolizing their consecratio and divine status. The composition honors Hadrian's adoptive parents as Divi, rendered with solemn dignity within a beaded border framing the reverse legend.
