Everything posted recently except the marine medal looks suspicious to me but I am don't know enough about them to make an assertion.

Now that you mentioned it the surface does look porous. It might be cast or just has environmental issues. A picture of the edge might help to determine whether it's real or not.

Yes! 9 mm. is far too small for any Trajan of which I am aware.

Here is quinarius of Trajan for this type, but it's 13.5 mm.

Yes, it is a pretty small coin. Sounds like it's most certainly a fake or cheap reproduction as were most of the recent posts.

Thanks again for all the help. I have a few more coming soon from a different place.
