I found this coin in a house I was cleaning out and need help identifying it's origin and current value. What is it? How much is it worth? The front appears to have a profile head shape pointing to the right. The back could either be a Pegasus or a horse with reins?
Thanks,
-Mark

to the community,

The coin does appear to be ancient. There really isn't enough detail left to tell who it is. The bust appears to be female and looks a little like Faustina I 100-141 AD.

Hey, and thank you for the welcome!
I have really enjoyed my first 24 hours as a new member. I just wish I knew more about this old chunk of metal I have. Any second opinions? And, if it does fit your diagnosis, what is the current value of this rare find?
Thanks,
-Mark
