| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a scene of imperial adlocutio or military distribution, showing Trajan seated left on a raised tribunal or platform, extending his right arm toward a group of standing soldiers or recipients arranged before him. The figures are rendered in relief typical of Trajanic narrative style, echoing the compositional language of the Column of Trajan. The legend IMPERATOR VIIII appears in the lower field, with the senatorial authorization mark S C (Senatus Consultum) prominently placed in the exergue below the central scene. |
