jbryan New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 05/14/2013 6:29 pm I was wondering if anyone could identify this coin- or if it is even a coin. It's in pretty bad shape and I couldn't really make out anything. Hopefully there is someone out there that can make something of it. I have posted the images of both sides, but the forum wont let me upload an image greater than 100kb. So I have the original .tif files scanned at 600 dpi (about 1MB each) if needed. I appreciate any help in advance! Jay Report this Post to the Staff

jcmworld Pillar of the Community United States 567 Posts	Posted 05/14/2013 8:39 pm It's a late Roman (4th century) bronze coin. Can't read the legends and the reverse is obliterated. You can see the bust on the top (upside down). Report this Post to the Staff
jbryan New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 05/14/2013 9:14 pm This was given to my partner by a homeless guy when he was working at KFC. He was the manager and let the guy eat there for free. We didn't think anything about it until I actually started looking at it closer. So its 4th century Roman? that's pretty cool. Any value to it? Jay Report this Post to the Staff
