Teo_fin New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 12/06/2021 9:13 pm Hello, This is the gift that got me interested in old coins. It is about 11g and 12mm and AE I believe (not the most accurate scale/measuring tape) Any ideas? I can try and take better pictures but these were the best I could get so far. Thank you, Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 12/06/2021 9:44 pm It's a Roman provincial coin From Alexandria, can't quite make out the legend, however I think it might be Macrinus. Also if you check out the Books, downloads and websites section you will find lots of information on ancient coins. Report this Post to the Staff
