    I acquired this piece many, many years ago.

    Part of a collection & I have no recollection which one, since, at the time, it did not do anything for me.

    However, now, I am trying to clean up some stuff.

    The notation that was included in the 2X2 envelope reads something like:
    "CLAUDIUS II" then: "268-270" and some thing below, which I cannot decipher.

    Any info would be appreciated including: condition and value.

    You can take some good pictures with a camera phone. All my pictures are from my iphone 6. Just take them from ~5in away and make sure it's stable.

    I hope these are good: the coin is rather dark.

    Looks like this (or something similar)to me:
    Claudius II AE Antoninianus. Rome mint. IMP CLAVDIVS AVG, radiate, cuirassed bust right / VICTORIA AVG, Victory standing left with wreath and palm branch. A in left field. RIC V-I, 105.

    It's pretty rough. Perhaps someone else will be able to confirm/deny. :)

    Honestly, the handwriting looks like Nil or Null Aepuit or Acpuit. But none of them google to anything useful.
