Trajan-Ric-No:-Help-Please.-I-Have-A-Few-Possibilities.

I am unsure if this is RIC 128-RSC 75 or ""75b

Also am I right in thinking this is a denarius? I usually stick to bronze so actually know very little. I was also from where it is clipped thinking that it is only silvered and not all the way through.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am in the process of confirming my atributations and putting my collection in quick slabs (and before I get moaned at...they are all removable)

When looking at the black areas in the pictures, my first thought is this coin may be a 'limes denarius'.
In terms of fabric, it appears to be similar of to a denarius of Geta in my collection.

I've just done some reading on 'limes denarius' very interesting read. I'm sure your right on that suggestion

Do you have any ideas on its proper RIC number?

IF? it is a limes denarius, it may make it hard to associate it with a RIC number.

Ah okay. I have (supposedly) narrowed it down to the two possibilities, but I am unable to find a definite. I'll tag it as unknown RIC no: for now and see at a later date if I can find a definite. Thanks again

Yes, RIC 128. For unofficial coinage (limes and fouree etc.) I usually write it like "cf. RIC 128" with cf. being an abbreviation for confer, meaning to compare and further note the unofficial nature-- wrong metal etc.
