Description: | Early Roman copper alloy denarius of Commodus dating from c. AD192. RIC 3 (Commodus), 237.A metallurgical analysis would be useful to see if there is any silver present. If it is entirely of base metal, then its purpose will certainly have been votive. A number of similar examples from the Maryport area were recorded (in the Netherhall collection; not the PAS database), though they have since disappeared.
