Hi everyone, Ordinarily I don't have issues identifying imperial Roman bronzes from the 3rd or 4th centuries. However, this double-headed piece is rather unusual. The Reverse seems to indicate that this is a piece of Aurelian. But the lettering on the obverse seems a bit crude and difficult to decipher. Could this be a barbarous piece?

Bob L- Great! Thanks for the help.

It looks as though this is a rather unusual piece (albeit holed, unfortunately).

There are collectors of holed ancient coins, I find them interesting. Here is a good site about them: https://www.forumancientcoins.com/m...d_coins.html
