| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Emperor Trajan facing right, with the head encircled by a wreath of laurel rendered in fine detail, the neck and shoulder draped in paludamentum. The portrait is executed in the confident, high-relief style characteristic of Trajanic imperial coinage, conveying authority and martial distinction. The encircling Latin legend runs from lower left to upper right around the periphery of the flan. The overall composition is typical of the Rome mint's output during Trajan's Dacian campaign issues. |
