My Aunt gave me this coin - she thought it had been found in Northern Italy by her late husband. Need help to identify the ruler/date of this coin, but I believe it says: Obv: CAESAR AVG Rev: AA.FFP.LURIUS.AGRIPPA Surrounding a large S.C

Reverse:- PLVRIVS AGRIPPA IIIVIR AAAFF around large SC.

Thanks Martin,

I was just looking on a website called John Jencek, and typed in the letters - hey presto! it came up with the same ID as yours! How common is this coin?
Cheers for your help.

They are not particularly scarce. Condition is very important. I would guess at a value somewhere in the $20-$40 range.
Regards,
Martin
