My largest ancient yet at 27mm. Haven't put in on the scale yet.
I usually collect coins smaller than 19mm for my collection because house most of them in an Intercept Shield album intended for Indian Head cents.
This one won't be going in there
Can someone help with the reverse inscription?

Best match for coin on Wildwinds seems to be RIC#1349B and the reverse inscription of "TR POT XIII COS II" would fit with the characters visible.

Nice pickup, vermontensium! You sure seem to be spending more time in the ancient world lately. You're going to have full-blown ancient fever soon :D.

My first coin ever (when I was 12) was a silver Greek hemiobol.
I've been on and off with ancients through the years but yeah, I'm starting to pick back up on them :-)
