| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Trajan facing right, rendered in high relief with finely articulated curled hair beneath the laurel wreath and paludamentum visible at the shoulder. The effigy conveys imperial authority through a strong, idealized profile characteristic of Trajanic portraiture. The encircling legend occupies the full periphery of the obverse field, reading from the lower left in crisp Latin capitals. |
