Here's another coin from the collection I obtained from an estate sale. This one is different from the others. All of the other coins are bronze but this one is not. its in terrible shape but I have hopes someone out there might still be able to identify it. Would also like to hear if anyone knows what the material is its made of. I tested it and it doesn't seem to be gold. If it is gold its less than 10k.

In my opinion it looks like a Roman Imperial or Provincial coin, bronze/copper, badly corroded and overly cleaned with no patina remaining. Maybe an emperor and his wife or co-emperors, maybe Augustus, Tiberius. Hard to tell if the writing on it is Latin or Greek. Badly worn/damaged coins are very difficult to identify. Even if this coin could be identified it's not worth much, sorry.
