I know its some type of Rome coin from the picture on it. Any info or help is greatly appreciated. Thank you! Report this Post to the Staff

Krause1705 Valued Member United States 57 Posts	Posted 11/13/2015 3:57 pm Yes the text on the front is DN VALEN, I couldn't decipher it until I read what you said and looked at it.. The back is worn so I can't quite read it.. Any idea of when its from? Report this Post to the Staff
