From the Getty Museum record
Obverse: Laureate bust of emperor to right, drapery over left shoulder. Of the legend, only "...AIANO AVG GER DAC PM TRP..." [Trajan, the Augustus, victor over Germania and Dacia, pontifex maximus, tribune of the people" is preserved. Cut or worn line diagonal across bust. Reverse: surface very worn; legend illegible. Standing figure of a genius or Bonus Eventus to left, holding out right hand (may have held a patera); cornucopia held in left arm along with downward-facing ears of grain. Illegible object to left of figure. C in field to right of figure. Surface of both sides very worn.
