Looks like Amphipolis in Macedonia for Traian to me.
I need some times to give you the exact Varbanov number, translating from Bulgarian, but coinarchives may help:

Hi Andreas!

Now that Luigi has pinned it I found a reference for you: it is AMNG III, 79.
Obv.  KAICAR TR - IANOC (beginning middle l.)
         Trajanus with cuirass, boots and waving cloak on horse, gallopping r; with his raised r.
         hand pointing the spear on an enemy laying on ground
Rev. AMFIP - OLEITWN
        Long clothed Artemis Tauropolis with kalathos stg. l., with r. hand resting on long torch,
        holding in lowered l. hand branch; shield on ground r.
1 ex. in Berlin

Best regards
