Description: | A Roman copper alloy Sestertius of indeterminate ruler possibly 2nd/4th century AD. The coin obverse has a bare outline of a laureate head right and the vestige of the robe the base of the bust. the reverse the shadow of a possible standing figure. There are possible letters from a legend in the form of juxtaposed 'C's to the reverse. The coin is extremely worn and fritted to the rim with a dark green/brown patina and has a feel of a crudely struck coin, perhaps a contemporary fake.
