Description: | A copper alloy Roman coin; probably a sestertius. The coin has a diameter of 29.5mm and is 3.4mm thick. It weighs 11.7g but is very worn and corroded. The surface detail is completely lost with much pitting and corrosion on both faces. The edges are badly chipped. The coin cannot be identified more specifically, but sestertii were issued from about 23BC until 269AD. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Cooper, Amy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
