Can anyone confirm my thought this is a Trajan coin where the emperor lauraete and draped bust right (IMP TRAIANO AVG GER DAC PM TR P ) and the reverse is Felicitas standing left with caduceus in right and cornucopia in left (COS V PP SPQR OPTIMO PRINC ). Or is it Pax or Acquitas ?
The coins weight is 2.1 gr and its diameter is 19 mm and it is a silvered coin.

Much thanks for reactions

Greetings from Belgium

Almost certainly a Trajan denarius 'fouree'. The coin is in rough shape. Some people do collect fouree denarii as a type. But this one is pretty far gone.
Reverse I am unsure of at a glance. But AEQVITAS seems like a likely choice.

Yep, definitely Trajan, but a fouree. Pity its so rough. Id be inclined to agree with FR on the AEQVITAS reverse.

No Echizento, it was in a lot of uncleaned coins.
