Sadly I don't have the coin ring in my possesion, but I've scoured coin shows, and intetnet for months trying to identify the coin. It's set in sterling silver. Don't know if this is the obverse or reverse.

Any thoughts?

It looks like the reverse of a Late Roman Bronze coin, can't tell who it might be would need to see the obverse.

It appears to be Jupiter (on the right) receiving a wreath from Victory, but what can be seen of the legend doesn't look right.

Maybe a RESTITVTOR ORBIS antoninianus of Aurelian?

And, howdy, neighbor! I'm also in central Ohio, but I leave it our ancient coin experts to finalize the attribution on your coin
