Your coin is a silver (AR) denarius of the Roman Emperor Elagabalus 218-222 AD. He was one of the bad ones. The reverse is FIDES MILITVM and is Fides standing holding a vexillum and standard. It's a nice looking coin.

Awesome! Any idea of how much it would fetch on the open market? Not planning on selling this one though.

Nice coin. You should read up on Elagabalus. He was a very... interesting... person. Some things in history are far more interesting than anything someone could make up, and this guy was one of them.
