    I know this is a very worn coin.
    But hopefully you can help me for ID.
    Have a suspicion that he is from Magnentius, but I can not find the reverse.
    Looks like Virtus / soldier, but the script is FEL TEMP REPARATIO
    Saw this on ebay. And for € 1.61 is that still doable I thought. But now on the couch in my hand, determination is disappointing. Just like this coin does not exist.

    If you are like me and don't like to download things like that from the Internet, you can search acsearch for Magnentius fel temp and find it, too. your photo does not reveal the mintmark but comparing yours to the ones they show might help.

    Thanks to the both of you. I found my coin.
    Magnentius. AD 350-353. Æ Centenionalis (22.5mm, 5.42 g, 12h). Lugdunum (Lyon) mint, 1st officina. Struck 18 January–27 February AD 350. Rosette-diademed, draped, and cuirassed bust right; A to left / Magnentius standing left, holding vexillum with Chi-Rho on banner. RIC VIII 108;

    This type is only known from Lyon mint with mintmark FSLG or FPLG.
    I can read the second letter it's a S so mine is the FSLG.
