Jay1234 Valued Member United States 379 Posts	Posted 08/10/2019 1:56 pm I received this in a lot of ancient coins I just purchased. I have no idea if this is an actual coin or just junk. Has anyone seen anything like this? Copper/bronze, 5.7g and 17mm. Both sides look the same except the lines on the second side are perpendicular to the lines on the front.

Jay1234 Valued Member United States 379 Posts	Posted 08/10/2019 2:06 pm It's 5.7 grams and 13mm. I wrote 17 in the original post but it's definitely 13mm. Report this Post to the Staff
