| Reverse description | A tall rostral or funerary column rises from an elaborate decorated base, surmounted by a flaming torch or eagle finial, depicted centrally in the field. The column, likely representing Trajan's Column or a commemorative monument, is rendered with considerable detail in the die engraving. The circumferential Latin legend P M TR P COS VI P P S P Q R runs around the design, referencing Trajan's principal titles and the authority of the Roman senate and people. The field is otherwise plain, focusing visual emphasis on the monumental column type. This reverse type is associated with the later coinage of Trajan, struck during his sixth consulship. |
