TRVST is not a misspelling. In the early 20th century it was a common affectation for artists to use the Roman alphabet when lettering classically-themed designs. Latin had only 24 letters; V served as a consonant, a vowel with the "u" sound, AND the number 5. You had to know which was which based on the context, the same way we use Y as both a vowel and consonant. Other coins and artworks from the same period also have the same seemingly odd spelling as well.
