Smilingdingo New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 09/03/2023 4:46 pm Please help a newbie. This ended up in a coin collection machine at the bank where my wife worked. I've been unable to identify on my own. I believe it's bronze and possibly Roman, beyond that this newbie is too new. Please help identify age background and potential value, if any. Thanks in advance. [moved]] Report this Post to the Staff

The portrait seems about right. To answer the original question, it's definitely a Roman bronze antoninianus. To my eye, the reverse looks to be a VIRTVS MILITVM type. So cool to have this turn up "in circulation".... Colligo ergo sum Edited by Lucky Cuss 09/03/2023 11:41 pm Report this Post to the Staff
