Can anyone kindly assist me in identifying who the portrait is of in this Roman coin? I am assuming it is a dupondius as it is 28mm wide and 11g in weight.
I have spent a week on and off researching it to no avail!? It says IMPCA on the portrait side and has X111Censor on SC side.

Also, does anyone know of a good Iphone5 App to take better pictures?

Andrew

At first glance, looks like Trajan or Domitian, but clearer photos would help. Try to point your iphone at coin and then use your finger to touch the screen to focus on the coin. You will see a yellow box appear and then it will focus.

Looks like a Dupondius of Domitian (IMP CAES DOMIT(IANVS)...). I doubt its female; as far as I know, no mortal women were ever shown wearing a radiate crown. Heres an example from the web:

I think Domitian.

I see IMP CAES DOMIT AVG GERM P M TR P

Reverse picture, weight, and size should make it fully attributable.

Ben - Can you kindly try and post the "link" again as it's not working on either of my browsers!
