The galley, gives what the legion was by the numerals, but it is a BC coin, and fetch decent money depending on how many of the type there are.Mike from MI said:Silver Searcher said:

Re: Ancient coin !.......
Here's the history of Legion VI:

Value? Guessing: $200-$300 (Silver Searcher got it first)

Re: Ancient coin !.......
Roman coins are not at there best at the moment :P you can pick up Silver Denarius for as little as £25 here, your coin is a bit more desirable, and I would expect it to fetch $200 plus, take it to a reputable dealer over there, and see if he makes a offer. But a collecter might pay more.
Hope this helps a bit
