Hi Folks,

I was wondering if anyone can help me identify and date this coin? I assumed it was Roman and bronze however I've as yet been unable to identify it. It was acquired in a small batch of unidentified British Roman coins. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Jonny

According to OCRE, all variants of this coin were minted in Rome AD 141. Here is info on them: http://numismatics.org/ocre/results...%22)&lang=en
