Description: | A complete copper alloy coin, probably a Roman dupondius due to its size and weight. Because dupondii went out of circulation generally following the reforms of Diocletian in 284 AD, this coin is likely to predate that period. Both the obverse and reverse of the coin are completely abraded from wear and corrosion. It is impossible to tell which side corresponds to which element of the coin. The coin measures 25.64 mm in diameter; 3.57 mm thick; weighing 10.94 g. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
