Bust of Trajan Decius, radiate, cuirassed, right, Felicitas, draped, standing left, holding long caduceus in right hand, and cornucopiae in left hand, Remarkable double sestertius. With excellent preservation of the engravings (although the hair may have been slightly re-engraved), this massive bronze coin has been very well struck, the flan is round and wide, making it extremely interesting and attractive. The portrait of Trajan Decius, an emperor in the early years of the crisis that hit the Roman Empire during the 3rd century, is remarkable, and it is rare to find this level of preservation of the details on these bronze coins intended for regular and frequent exchanges.
