Hi,
I was hoping someone could tell me what this coin is and what it could possibly be worth?

Thanks!

The Constantinian dynasty (could be done sub-$50 in low grade with patience):
- Constantius I
-- Wife Theodora
- Constantine the Great
-- Mother Helena
-- Wife Fausta
-- Son Crispus Caesar
- Delmatius Caesar
- Constantine II
- Constantius II
- Constans
- Constantius Gallus Caesar
- Julian II

Technically with the above but usually omitted due to price:
- Hanniballianus (Held title of "King", nephew of Constantine)
- Nepotian (Usurper, nephew of Constantine)
- Procopius (Usurper, cousin of Julian)


The Five Good Emperors / Nerva-Antonine dynasty:
- Nerva
- Trajan
-- (Wife Plotina and her family are silly expensive)
- Hadrian
-- Wife Sabina
-- Aelius Caesar
- Antoninus Pius
-- Wife Faustina I
- Lucius Verus
-- Wife Lucilla
- Marcus Aurelius
-- Wife Faustina II
- Commodus
-- Wife Crispina

It's a billon antoninianus (double-denarius) of Otacilia Severa, wife of emperor Philip I "The Arab", who reigned 244-249. Reverse is Concordia seated.

It's on the scarcer side of common, but not rare by a long shot. With the environmental damage, I'd reckon it at ~$15.

Thank you everyone!! I've had this coin for about 15 years and always wondered what it was. Picked it up at an antique shop. Cool to know where it came from!
