| Beschrijving keerzijde | Matidia stands facing, her head turned to the left, depicted in a central pietas pose with both arms outstretched and her hands resting upon the heads of her two daughters, Sabina at her right and Matidia the Younger at her left. The composition evokes familial piety and dynastic continuity, the three figures rendered in classical style with draped garments. The reverse legend occupies the field around the group, proclaiming the imperial virtue of pietas. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Matidia the Elder was Trajan's niece and one of the most publicly honored women of the Antonine period — her elevation in imperial coinage was deliberate policy, not sentiment. When she died in 119 AD, Hadrian delivered her eulogy personally and engineered her deification, but this aureus predates that, placing it within Trajan's own reign when her prominence was being actively constructed through official channels.
The pairing with Sabina — Hadrian's wife and Matidia's daughter — on a single issue is a dynastic advertisement, linking the reigning emperor's family line forward into the next generation. RIC II 759 is among the scarcer aurei of the Trajanic series.
