<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Barnabus, post: 1971328, member: 71080&quot;]I got these two coins from a garage sale lot, Got both of them for $5.00 USD, they are in Terribad shape, and hard to identify. I think they are roman but I do not know. When I was researching how to tell brass/bronze/gold apart, I came up with Brass is magnetic, which these are not, and gold is soft, bronze is not. I took a stainless steel key from my pocket and pressed it into the coins (Please don&#039;t give me grief, they are horrible shape as is) both coins indented fairly easily, and show a vibrant yellow color, and they feel very smooth for how rough they look. I am giddy in hopes they are Gold, but I am not counting on it. I&#039;d rather identify them as bronze, than never know as gold. Both are very heavy for the size, but they are thick.</p><p><br /></p><p>Please help! thanks</p><p><br /></p><p>Barnabus!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y203/xxsatanxx/20140820_144145_zpsd8cdb92c.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y203/xxsatanxx/20140820_144221_zpsa17b6293.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y203/xxsatanxx/20140821_001119_zps07a1eb55.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y203/xxsatanxx/20140821_001134_zpsd684d01b.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
