Necrominion New Member United Kingdom 4 Posts	Posted 03/13/2021 6:26 pm Hello everyone. I have an old Roman coin here which I am trying to work out what it is exactly. There is a semi-decent relief of the emperor on the obverse, whilst on the reverse is a somewhat ok relief of a figure. Sadly much of the inscription is unreadable making any attempts at narrowing it down difficult. Thank you in advance. Report this Post to the Staff

We will get some good eyes on it for you over there.
