<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ambr0zie, post: 5707490, member: 80952&quot;]Trajan (or the spelling in my language, Traian) is a central figure in the history of my country. As everybody knows, he conquered Dacia, or a big part of it, after the Dacian Wars. He is considered the founder of our nation. </p><p>He is even present in folk customs, there is an ancient tradition that in the New Year&#039;s Eve, groups of children (or in some parts of the country, mature people) perform something that is translated as &quot;the little plow&quot; - they go to neighbors&#039; houses and say a poem about winter and agriculture. In some versions, Traian is the main character. </p><p><br /></p><p>When I started collecting ancient coins, Traian coins were a must. And it will remain a main goal for my collection. I intend to buy some large bronzes and, especially, coins related to the Dacian conquest. </p><p><br /></p><p>My Traian/Trajan coins:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1242760[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Lydia.
