The emperor's features display the characteristic mature likeness with a strongly modelled face and neatly arranged laureate wreath. The bust is truncated at the shoulder, showing drapery over the left shoulder. The encircling legend reads IMP TRAIANO OPTIMO AVG GER DAC P M TR P, distributed around the periphery in well-spaced Latin capitals. |

Fortuna Redux — "Fortune the Returner" — was invoked specifically to celebrate a ruler's safe return, and Trajan's eastern campaigns gave the type renewed urgency. The coins bearing this reverse were struck in the final years of his reign, when he was pushing Rome's imperial boundaries to their greatest extent ever, deep into Mesopotamia. He never made it back. Trajan died in Selinus, Cilicia in August 117 AD, mid-return from the east, leaving Hadrian to consolidate what proved to be indefensible conquests.
