    Best idea off the top of my head is to search the ancients section of coinarchives.com for like coins & see what they brought at auction.

    By the way Nathan,
    If you just type "focas solidus" into Google, like this http://images.google.com/images?hl=...G=Google+Search&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi
    You should be able to find out just about anything you ever wanted to know about the subject and then some...easy.
    The Carthage coin is typical of the designs from the Port of Zeugitana and usually features the portrait of the goddess Tanit on the obverse and some kind of horse design on the reverse.Very pretty!
    "carthage gold coin" http://images.google.com/images?hl=...G=Google+Search&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi
    As for value if you click the Wildwinds carthage link (6th and 7th photos) of the one that looks a lot like yours,then click on the big photo,it will take you to the completed auction/sale page.That one went for a whopping $955 and it's not even certified like yours.
    Now go to this page of thumbnails http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/greece/zeugitana/carthage/t.html and click the "TEXT" link to the left of the gold coins like yours and look at the sale prices.$955 is about the lowest!
    Ain't technology wonderful?
