| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Trajan facing right, rendered in fine high relief with carefully articulated curls of hair beneath the laurel wreath. The drapery falls naturally over the left shoulder, conveying imperial gravitas. A beaded border frames the design, and the circumferential legend reads IMP TRAIANO AVG GER DAC P M TR P COS VI P P, recording Trajan's full titulature. The portrait is characteristic of the refined Trajanic engraving style, combining idealized Hellenistic influence with Roman realism. |
