Obverse description Radiate bust of Trajan facing right, draped and cuirassed, rendered in bold high relief characteristic of Trajanic portraiture. The emperor's effigy displays his characteristic strong features with short hair beneath the radiate crown, indicative of the dupondius denomination. The legend encircles the bust, reading clockwise from lower left, giving full imperial titulature. The portrait conveys the authoritative, vigorous style associated with the Rome Mint under Trajan's reign.
