<p>[QUOTE="ValiantKnight, post: 2296635, member: 44210"]Would anyone happen to have any more info behind this packaging? Who could have issued it? What northern Italian dam excavation it may be referring to? Didn't find anything related online. The packaging itself looks decades-old (the plastic + staples look like they could be newer, as in added later?). I only got it banking on the possibility that since it looks to be a kind of chunky AE4 it could be a scarce/rare 5th-6th cent. nummus and the fact that it was cheap. So, any ideas?</p><p><br /></p><p>(No photos of the back nor better photos of the coin.
