| Obverse description | Bare laureate head of Emperor Trajan facing right, rendered with strong, naturalistic portraiture characteristic of Trajanic coinage. The emperor's laurel wreath is rendered in fine detail, with individual leaves visible across the brow. The bust is truncated at the neck, with drapery folds visible at the lower truncation. The surrounding field is plain, with the encircling Latin legend arranged along the coin's rim. |

| Reverse description | The winged goddess Victoria stands facing right in a dynamic pose, her left foot raised and resting upon a captured enemy helmet. She inclines forward to inscribe an oval clipeus (shield) mounted on a low base or palm trunk, holding a stylus or writing instrument in her right hand. Her wings are spread and her drapery falls loosely from her shoulders, conveying movement and divine authority. The reverse type symbolizes Trajan's early Dacian victories, with the legend distributed across the upper and lower fields. |
