Any help with this one is greatly appreciated. Found in a box of old late 1800's empty cartridge casings from a yard sale.

It's older than Valentinian; a provincial "sestertius" of Philip the Arab (244-49) from Moesia. Looks like it's year 4 (AN IIII) so 248. Nice find!

Thank you! Awesome. Are Phillip II and Phillip the Arab the same person?

Philip II was the young son of Philip the Arab. They shared the same titulature and mostly can only be separated by portrait; Philip I was a middle aged man with a strong chin and nose, Philip II was a nine year old boy. I am pretty sure yours is Philip I.
