I tried, but there's something wrong!

 

appreciate

 

any ideas!

 

my first impression of the obverse bust was Septimius Severus, maybe a provincial from Markianopolis, similar to the ones below

Thank you so much Mr victor for your post , It's a very close resemblance coins of my coin, but i think there are some different .

 

Be patient, MANY more will chime in. BTW..."Sarcastic"...boy have you come to the right place!

 

Skull and crossbones?

 

I give one dollar for the coin...

 

With regards "John Silver"

 

& half

 

I think @Victor_Clark is on the right track, especially when you compare the 'devices' on his second Sept Sev post----wear and corrosion can distort the 'images' on ancient coins quite a bit so getting a more precise match is unlikely....not to mention each and every hand-struck coin is 'unique' in its own right.

 

Doesn't look like carausias to me!

 

It has the overall look of a contemporary copy to me. The sculptural content is far more crude than would be expected from even a Provincial mint. If this is from one of the big Danubian mint-cities it is even less likely to have been made so crudely.
Did we get a diameter and/or weight?

 

6.51g 21.35mm


if you think so, then all of these are copy too, (it's one piece from them)!...

 

I will look at your photos later - I must run to an appointment - but you need to bear in mind that contemporary copies regularly circulated side-by-side with the official coin which they copied.
