    I'd guess Antioch too, due to the 'standards' on the reverse----but the portrait and legend are two vague or unfamiliar for me to identify further....perhaps a little 'light' cleaning might reveal more of the legend and the legible Greek lettering??

    And, it looks like an 'acsearch' is needed to help narrow the possibilities down unless one of the members can identify it, of course.

    I have a different type from Antioch of Aemilian, for example:

    Thank you for the answer. In my head near the coin depicts an anchor, and a sign of Antioch.
    Brushing her I did not want it lost visibility coin found yesterday.
    There's image probably marks the Legion and standard - Legio - lll (L-lll)

    Maybe my coin not in the catalog, and then it is unique. In this case, you can congratulate me.

    It is believed that the provincial Mint Rhesaena not minted silver and gold coins under the Emperor Caracalla because it was the province where silver ne printed and copper propogandy purposes only. . But I found that there were minted bilony 15 grams. What do you think? In my opinion there can be released Takaka finned coin like this?
    And if I and silver coin, it is a fake according to some "experts"…..

    It seems genuine to me, but I've been fooled more than a few times this year.

    Did you discuss this coin on 'Forum's' discussion link or was it another site altogether?

    It seems genuine to me (Bullion Tet of Caracalla?), but I've been fooled a couple of times this year alone.

    What 'forum' did you discuss this coin on?

    And, I'm surprised more members here at CT haven't commented---Perhaps re-posting a new thread and asking for help clarifying the genuineness of the coin might be a good idea.

    Mikey , Yes, it's a Russian forum with a very helpful and poorly qualified people. I do not believe these people. Do you believe I'm here for a lot longer.

    Mikey! Yes you are right!!!!! This coin needed more time to discuss in terms of its identity and definition. My opinion is that it is 100% true. It is a little known billion Caracal or is it unknown The Silver tetrodahma

    It looks like it still has dirt on it. Have you considered giving it a soak in water to see if anything loosens? I can't be much help...I don't own any relevant references. You think it's a ship on the reverse?
