<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mikjo0, post: 85357, member: 3565&quot;]I&#039;m starting to think bonedigger was right about it being a coin of Antonius Pius (138-161 AD).I found several examples of his with similar designs,SC on the reverse with wreath and design above.In addition,it seems to be from one of the Provincial mints,possibly Antioch and the inscription is in Greek which is why some of the letters are difficult to identify.The most noticable is at about 9 O&#039;clock and looks sort of like a flying &quot;Y&quot;.This would be the Greek letter gamma and usually appears like this on coins.The Romans also had the letter Y in their alphabet but it was almost never used.</p><p>Anyway,a lot of Antonius&#039; coins had Greek legends.</p><p>Just a guess but there isn&#039;t a lot to go on from your photo.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
