I can't say anything more from this small picture; possibly (but unlikely) some actual experienced people could, for example, name the exact emperor (or at least pin it down by style to something slightly more precise than "probably after 300 AD").

joecugini New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 06/08/2013 10:21 pm The back side is too faded. I can't read any of the letters on the front. Report this Post to the Staff
chrsmat71 Pillar of the Community United States 4973 Posts	Posted 06/08/2013 10:40 pm hmmmm...yeah, I don't think we can go much beyond "4th century roman bronze coin". it may end in "nobc", I would guess it is costans, constantius ii, constantius gallus, or jullian ii.
