Hello again, Going to try a new approach here. From now on I'm going to try my best at identifying the remainder of the ancients in this group, but will try to see if anyone can help out with those I just can't figure out. Perhaps I'll even check back again, once I think I'm finished, just to get some feedback on my accuracy. After downloading a couple books on my tablet and compiling a list of all the great reference links that have been provided in the previous threads, I think I should have enough at my disposal to get me on the right track. Anyway, the following coin has stumped me. It's very worn down and all I can make out is the outline of the bust and the faint wall (?) design on the reverse. Obviously can't see any of the legend on the obverse, and if there's supposed to be any lettering on the reverse, it's long gone. I've come across similarity styled portraits or claudius and Nero, but didn't see anything that resembles the reverse when I looked through some of their coins. If anyone might be able to point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it very much. Don't have to say it directly, even a hint would work, that way I can still do the research. Thanks!
That's it! Thanks @David@PCC , I was just about to mention that I thought I was starting to see the remainders of the letters "SC" above the wall, but my eyes played a trick on me.
