No luck with the reverse on wildwinds. Will have another look tomorrow. An Augustus would be awsome.

Sure looks like Pius to me. I am thinking an Annona type reverse but it is a bit hard to tell. Holding a branch and a wand ?

I could be wrong, I often am. But it doesn't look like AP to me at all. I'm still going with Augustus

What size is the coin?
Might be a provincial of Antoninus Pius.

It is 24mm and 8.03g dark grey tone.

I am off on holiday on Saturday for a couple of weeks. The coins are coming with me and I will see if I can clean it up. Will be taking photographs and trying to catalogue them so will have lots of questions when I get back!

Haven't told husband yet!
