| Reverse description | Divus Nerva, deified and enthroned, seated in a triumphal quadriga drawn by four elephants advancing to the right, each elephant ridden by a mahout. The deified emperor is depicted holding a sceptre in his left hand and an olive branch in his right, symbolising his divine authority and peaceful reign. The scene is a classic consecratio type, celebrating the apotheosis and official deification of Nerva under Trajan. The reverse legend IMP CAES TRAIAN AVG GER DAC P P REST is arranged around the field in Latin capitals, affirming Trajan's role as the restorer of this commemorative issue. |
