I have no idea what the coin is, I only collect US coins and the occasional world coin that I come across. I suspect that a better pic will be requested so that the writing can be read. What I do to put good pics up is to put the pic on photobucket or flickr. Then I right click on the uploaded pic, and select the copy link location choice. I paste that on the forum in between [img*]put link here[/img*] (remove the *s) and that gets really nice pics up.

Hello nod2003, I will try to do that.
On the coin is writen latin letter (but I can not read what)I was thinking that perhaps its Victory Godess , but she is Greek.. I don't know :-(
I'm a graphic designer and I need to find this pic until tomorrow for work.
Thanks again for your interest and your help.
Take care, Tanja

It appears to be ancient Roman, and does indeed depict Victory (a goddess the Romans copied off the Greek goddess Nike), but I can't tell much more, or whether it's genuine or not, without seeing (a) better pics, and (b) the other side. If you can tell us how large the coin actually is, that might help, too.
