Hi All, I'm trying to identify the following coin. It's pretty corroded but there are some details present. The first two images are of the obverse and the third is the reverse. I'm thinking it may be Roman? Any info you could provide would be much appreciated.
Also here's three other coins(?) that I'm not sure about. The first two square ones are small (less than 1/2 inch each). The other two images are the obverse and reverse of the same coin/object. Do you know their origins and any possible value?
The square things look like Roman weights and the third object. The dots would have been added so you would know how heavy the weight was, so the scales could be adjusted justly. (with the hole) looks like a spindle whorl (likely Roman). Google those things and you should see similar items to yours. If I had to venture a guess, I'd say the three items were likely made in the late Roman Empire days, likely around the 1st-3rd centuries A.D., and perhaps even during the time of Christ.
Thank you all for your insights. It really is quite amazing to think about the time period in which these objects were used. Cheers!
You're welcome, Matt. Sorry about the grammar in my above post, though! I really don't know what I was thinking.
