Trajan Sestertius from old collection
« on: July 13, 2019, 01:59:04 pm »
I received this Trajan Sestertius today. The seller offered a lot of fakes from a Collection but this coin is/was genuine. So I was lucky and could purchase it for cheap money.

Nice coin.

Once I had one of these, it was one of my first sestertii.

Very close to this one, only with P P at the end of the reverse legend.
