It is a Denarius coin. Hard to really say what it was worth, maybe a decent job for a day's work.
[ATTACH] Galba. I haven't bothered to attribute the coin. It's an As. The dealer tells me it's LIBERTAS PVBLICA. It's definitely a slot filler...

Yeah, I'll definitely go lower to be safer on the coin. I was initially thinking between 2-3 hundred.
I'm definitely going to bake the coin at around 300F, I think. I don't want to crack the coin, or run the risk of doing that.
