Nice going Benny but any chance of another shot from more overhead so we can see the inscription clearer?

Definately a denarius! Just did the silver foil trick and it burnt my finger! Looks a lot clearer now! Will post some pics as soon as I've took some!

Great find benny. Definitely Trajan, something like this although the reverse legend may be different:
