Roman dispute

Post by tobo27 »

Could someone ID this Roman coin please. Disagreement with me and my mates to whether it is silver or not. I don't think so because of the green verdigris.

Thank you :-)

Surely at that size it wouldn't be silver. Nice coin though. Well found [81/]
Remember, there is no 'X' marks the spot!
Not finding anything is not for the want of trying! [:)

There you go pal. Not only can you go back and tell them they where wrong but you can also tell them where it was struck. [18/]
It's not what you don't know that is the problem. It's what you think you know, that just isn't so.
