| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Trajan facing right, rendered in bold high relief characteristic of Trajanic coinage. The emperor's portrait displays finely detailed hair beneath the laurel wreath, with paludamentum visible at the truncation. The circular legend surrounds the effigy, running from lower left to upper right across the coin field. The beaded border frames the design along the coin's irregular periphery. The portrait conveys the authoritative, idealised realism typical of early second-century Roman imperial die-cutting. |
