    I have a few Roman coins that I am not able to identify and would love you help! This first one I only have a back photo because the other side is blank. Any thoughts?

    Remove it from the holder, take well-lit pictures of both sides (even if one side is "blank"), and post the new pictures in this thread along with the diameter and weight of the coin and how/where you acquired it.

    Listen to @TIF all I can see is a cross which might make it a Crusader coin.

    Check the obverse. If you see a bust surrounded by the inscription DNTHEODO going up on the left and SIVSPFAVG going down the right, then the coin is of Theodosius II, dating from 415-425 A.D.

    It´s rotated, should be 45º to the left. It´s a byzantine pentanummi (Big E), 2nd. office (B).
