Indeed, the portrait to the right does look like Trajan. But might it be Hadrian? I think I can see "AN HADRIANVS" in the obverse legend, and it may be " SALVS AV" or " SALVS AVG" in exergue on the reverse. Similar, though with "COS III":

There are several odd areas on both the obverse and reverse of that right coin. Perhaps an overstrike or fouree?

It is an early COS II denarius of Hadrian, struck in 118 AD with Salus seated on the reverse.

It is this coin or one similar to this:
