| Reversbeschreibung | Standing figure, likely representing a deity or personification, facing left and holding a caduceus in one hand and a cornucopia in the other, consistent with a depiction of Felicitas or Mercury in the Roman numismatic tradition. The figure is rendered in a simplified, barbarous style typical of Germanic imitative coinage. A degenerate pseudo-Latin legend surrounds the type in the field, imitating the reverse inscriptions of Trajanic denarii. The overall composition and iconography are derived from official Roman prototypes but exhibit the crude workmanship characteristic of tribal imitations. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Barbarous imitations of Trajan's denarii were struck well after his death, at a point when Roman silver had become the dominant trading currency across the Rhine and Danube frontiers. The Germanic tribes producing these pieces had no interest in commemorating a dead emperor — they were exploiting the coin's established acceptance value among neighboring peoples and Roman traders alike. Trajan's types were among the most copied, likely because they remained in heavy circulation long after issue.
Silver content in these imitations varies considerably and often falls short of contemporary official issues, suggesting selective melting and restrike rather than fresh silver sourcing.
