    Hey guys! I've been working on this for about an hour to no avail.

    Does anyone recognize this roman republic?

    I can see the letters ROMA, but can you read the letters below that?

    That's the part I'm having trouble.

    There are so many with that reverse. Having ROMA above the exergual line seems unusual. That's unfortunate in this coin's case because it makes the moneyer's name difficult to discern.

    Looks like C.P.L.R.O.-something but I'm not able to correlate that with a moneyer's name. If no one here can identify it, try posting it at Forvm. Andrew McCabe frequents that site and he's a Republican expert/specialist.
