Trajan denarius (Spes)

One of my first ancient coins, that still gives me a lot of fun. Trajan denarius with nice details, seductive toning and Spes, the goddess of hope, walking left, holding a flower in right hand and raising hem of draped robe with left - on the reverse.

Obverse:  IMP TRAIANO AVG GER DAC P M TR P, Bust of Trajan, laureate, right, draped,

Reverse: COS V P P S P Q R OPTIMO PRINC, Spes, draped, advancing left, holding up flower in right hand and lifting up skirt with left.

Riferimento : RIC 127
