Description: | A very worn, overcleaned copper-alloy Roman coin: probably an early 4th-century nummus of an uncertain Tetrachy period ruler, possibly 'GENIO POP ROM', uncertain mint (c. 307 - c. 317 AD)This coin has been pierced, presumably for use as a jewellery item at a later date. Although this practice occurred in the Roman period it is most commonly documented as an early-medieval practice. The piercing respects neither obverse or reverse designs.
