| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Emperor Trajan facing right, with drapery on the left shoulder, rendered in the robust, realistic portraiture characteristic of Trajanic coinage. The emperor's strong facial features — prominent nose, defined jaw, and closely cropped hair beneath the laurel wreath — are rendered in high relief. The encircling legend runs along the rim from left to right. The field shows the typical irregular flan surface associated with hammered silver denarii of the early second century AD. |
