Bodey New Member United States 28 Posts	Posted 03/26/2016 3:05 pm Hello everyone, I have not posted anything for quite a while because I just haven't purchased any coins lately.But here is what I believe to be a roman coin. I know nothing about it I would appreciate it if someone could identify it for me and possibly how old it is. Thanks, Michael Report this Post to the Staff

lrbguy Pillar of the Community United States 949 Posts	Posted 03/26/2016 3:49 pm Marcus Aurelius with obverse inscription M ANTONINVS AVG TR P XXVI which dates the coin to December 171-Dec 172. Reverse inscription looks like IMP VI COS III. I can't make out the figure on the reverse, but it looks like it could be Minerva standing right with right arm on spear and shield resting against leg.
