A Barbaric Sestertius of Trajan
A Barberous issue Found in the Balkans. Obverse struck from a die created from casting a Trajan sestertius. Reverse has image of Modius copied from a Nerva sestertius but legend is a typical Trajan type done in retrograde. An example is listed in Some Unique and Unpublished Coins by KOVACS. This sestertius is from the same dies and is perhaps the second known example.
