<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eduard, post: 1184670, member: 8959&quot;]I have been looking now for a while for Trajans denarius depicting the Columna Traiani. The opportunity presented itself a few days ago and I decided to go for it. </p><p>This is not a rare coin, maybe not even altogether that scarce, but it is highly in demand due to the interesting historical reverse depiction.&nbsp; </p><p>This example appealed to me when I saw it, and I know I may have overpaid a little.......but I like it a lot and I think it was worth the stretch. I also have the dupondius and the sestertius of the type so that makes it all the more interesting. </p><p>Trajans column stands to this day at his Forum in Rome.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Denarius (3,53g), Rome, Winter 114-Spring 115 a.D.&nbsp; Obv.: IMP CAES NER TRAIANO OPTIMO AVG GER DAC, Draped bust with wreath facing right. Rv.: P M TR P COS - VI P P S PQ R, Columna Traiani with spiral reliefs showing scenes of Trajans Dacian campaigns. </p><p>RIC 356, RSC 284, MIR 514v.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
