Rv trophy.&nbsp; RIC 147 Woytek 268b 3.65 grms 18 mm Photo by W. Hansen[ATTACH=full]1247036[/ATTACH]This coin is part of the massive coinage celebrating Trajan&#039;s successes against the Dacians and the incorporation of their territory into the Roman Empire.&nbsp; Besides the shields and spears one can see what appear to be the representation of two of the Dacian falx just above the grounded shield on the right. I guess there was just not enough room to place a captive in amongst all this military hardware.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
