From what I can see there are some roman coins in there too and I would like help identifying them please. And if at all possible putting a rough value on them. Many thanks in advance. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

The inscription reads, "Jupiter the Conservator (of Our Emperors)". The mint mark would seem to indicate it was struck at Thessalonica (Greece).

I look forward to seeing more of your coins on CCF!
