Not really sure about this little olive green gem
It has a somewhat "unofficial" sort of look about it doesn't it ?
Not even certain the obverse is Janus although that seems probable
The reverse seems to depict a ships prow although the direction is again uncertain !
About the only thing I am sure of is two letters in monogram beneath
Either AB or possibly AR
I is stumped !

14.05 grams 28-31mm

Perhaps the monogram is actually a ligate "SB" from SABINVS: Titurius L.f. Sabinus

Aha !
I believe there is an S preceding
That gives me SAB which is encouraging !
