Ancient Rome 116-117AD Trajan, Rev. Mars Silver Denarius VF-EF (VF30)
Emperor Trajan (53–117 CE), born Marcus Ulpius Traianus II, ruled Rome from 98 to 117 CE and is remembered as one of the “Five Good Emperors” for his military skill, administrative reforms, and public works. Born in Italica, in modern Spain, he expanded the empire to its greatest territorial extent, most notably through his successful campaigns in Dacia and against the Parthians. Trajan also invested heavily in infrastructure, constructing roads, bridges, aqueducts, and the famous Trajan’s Forum and Trajan’s Column in Rome. His reign was marked by effective governance, a focus on justice, and attention to the welfare of the populace, earning him enduring admiration as a model of imperial virtue and leadership.
Obverse: Laureate head of Trajan facing right, with the legend around.
Reverse: Helmeted Mars, naked except for a cloak around his waist, advancing to the right, holding a transverse spear in his right hand and trophy over his left shoulder, with the legend around.
