    Sorry. I can't make anything out - too worn.

    I have a feeling VK would know...

    How big is it (dime sized, penny, nickel, etc)

    About the size of a dime

    I'm going to take a guess: Zeno. It looks like it could be his monogram on the reverse, and you find a lot of his AE4s that are so worn as to be unreadable save for the monogram.

    Leo is also a possibility. At any rate: very late Roman, toward the end of the empire.

    Can you see any letters above the N?

    If you can't, all I can tell is:

    Late Roman Bronze,

    Nummus
    5th Century

    I'm thinking Leo now - I checked ERIC it's possible this is the monogram...

    I really can't make out any of the legend on the obverse, but AE4s of Leo are very common in this grade. Maybe a $20 coin, if that. I'd pay $5, but I don't like coins in this low of a grade, plus I'm a cheapskate.
