I try to identify every coin I have. Sometimes it's hopeless, but in this case I believe it's possible. I stared a bit too long at this piece. Can someone help me solve this one?

Obv: Bust facing right, not sure if it's bareheaded or not
Legend: [...] R or E DA [..]
Rev: I can only decipher a oval wheel or shield on the base of the coin.
Legend: [..] QR [..]
Diameter: 17mm
Mass: 1 gram

The Obverse has the look of Trajan imo.
Not too sure if I can actually make anything of the Reverse but is that a Horses head & leg at 9 o'clock in the picture ?
Maybe a chariot ?
I could be way off but that is what I am seeing, hopefully this helps in some way.

darn , Ron you beat me to it

Seems to have an exergual line just below it, and maybe crescents within(?). Perhaps a shield below a seated Dacian, rt.?
