paultess New Member Canada 30 Posts	Posted 10/16/2018 4:30 pm I have no background, sorry. Coin is golden in colour. Diameter is 1.7 cent. But irregular. Any help would be great, thanks.

Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 10/17/2018 12:48 pm Indeed, it is Claudius II Gothicus, the metal is brass (Orichalcum to the romans). This is a common posthumous issue of his inscribed DIVO CLAVDIO // CONSECRATIO, commemorating his deification. The square business is a fire altar, the pointy bit (facing down in your pictures) is the flame atop the altar. Report this Post to the Staff
