<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Roman Collector, post: 3522225, member: 75937&quot;]In the course of photographing this one, I noticed something I hadn&#039;t before -- the reverse inscription is not COS V P P S P Q R OPTIMO PRINC, but ... PRINCI. This reverse variety is not described in BMCRE2, RIC, or Cohen. I can&#039;t find another example at acsearchinfo. Does anyone have Woytek? Is is listed in there? Does anyone know of another example of this reverse legend variety?</p><p><br /></p><p>Post your Trajans, your personifications of the Roman provinces, or other coins you feel are relevant!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]935283[/ATTACH]</p><p>Trajan, AD 98-117.</p><p>Roman AR denarius, 3.35 g, 18.3 mm, 7 h.</p><p>Rome, AD 103-111.</p><p>Obv: IMP TRAIANO AVG GER DAC P M TR P, laureate bust, right, with drapery on left shoulder.</p><p>Rev: COS V P P S P Q R OPTIMO PRINCI,&nbsp; Arabia, draped, standing left, holding branch in right hand over camel walking left before her and a bundle of canes (?) in left hand.</p><p>Refs: RIC 142 var.; BMCRE 297-299 var.; Cohen 89 var.; Sear --; ERIC II 400 var.</p><p>Notes: The usual reverse inscription reads ...
