It looks to be the P. Cornelius Lentulus obverse and Vespasian reverse.

I can't find a similar example at any major auction house which means I wouldn't trust it at all.

I saw the sellers listing, there are many fake denarii there. So steer clear of it.

Thanks to you all.

Arnoldoe, you must have been posting yours as I was writing my last reply. Good call on that Rev.

Whizb4ng, you and others are right, and I won't waste my money here. I was suspicious when I first saw the 20th Century James Dean hairstyle, but . . . well, you know how it is?

Thank to all of you for your help. I will let someone else get caught with this one.

Beers are on me.

Cornelius Lentulus Marcellins did have coins with that type of obverse, but consistently with the same reverse of a guy receiving a laurel. That combined with the reverse match with the Vespasian coin would make me steer clear of this one.

Edit: Didn't see the second page and this had been resolved, but I agree with the other posters :)
