I need a coin expert out here on Bonanza to see if they can help me identify this coin that I have.
It is a Roman coin and it is real because I did take it into a few shops but they are not savvy on old roman coins.
This coin was in my fathers estate and its very interesting but I cant seem to find anyone to be able to identify it or at that fact to give me any information on it.
So hopefully there will be one of my fellow Bonz ppl to be able to help me out or steer me in the right direction
Thanks :)

If you also go into Google and type in â–º sc ancient roman coin
Then click Images (on left), there are some really good images to see if any might capture your interest next.
I’m waiting a reply from Bruno (friend in Milano that collects roman coins) to see if he will have some expert advice next. If so, I will UPDATE with a follow up reply.

I am not familiar with ancients,
but I think you may be able to find some of
your answers from some of these sites.

My father in law is an expert in ancient coins, I’ll have him look at it for you in the morning. He has been collecting ancients for over 50 years.
