    Sorry the photo is not great. I got a lot of 7 coins, including 2 TGs. This one is listed as R1. It cost me a tenner and I have only found 2 on the internet. One on acsearch for 60 euros and one currently on Vcoins for £77 (also scratched), so that has paid for the lot.

    I might be able to improve on the scratch when I get home, I won't be able to eliminate it completely.

    Cool addition, Pish and better for $10. His coins can be often found cheap.

    Nice Steve, magic soup would sort that green out. Lovely coins Mat.

    My coin looks silver, not yellow orange, I just can't get the lighting right, might do better when I get home.

    I only own one TG and it's nothing like the OP coin. I would most certainly give $10 for it. Heck, I'll offer you $20 right now. How's that for doubling your money?

    Anyway, my only:

    Just from what I can make out NoName's coin would appear to be:-
    IVNO MARTIALIS, Juno seated left, holding corn-ears and sceptre
