Title: Could this be a roman ? Post by: Kent on January 01, 2016, 06:31:54 PM Hi all found this coin a few weeks back didn't think anything of it just looking at a few finds and it looks like it could be Roman the head side looks roman to me and the reverse looks like it has the letters s c on it with something in between s on the left c on the right but it isn't very thick to the right of the c on the reverse it appears to have the letters A V G let me know what you think or is it just my eye's cheers all
