A very nice denarius struck as part of the "DACIA CAPTA" commemorative series to celebrate Trajan's victory over the Dacian kingdom. Also a nice depiction of the notorious Dacian falx, a curved blade weapon popular amoung the trans-Danubian tribes which proved devastating to Roman legionaries. In fact, many military historians attribute widespread armor modifications during the early second century as a response to combat with falx-weilding opponents. These include the transverse, riveted iron crossbars of Imperial Gallic-style helments and an increasing popularity in lorica hamata and lorica squamata. Some minor laminar defects and cleaning scratches. Policies I apply the highest ethical standards in selling ancient coins.
