How you doin'? Don't see you around here much. ;-)

Thank you, Charlie P (NY) I have looked all day through all Roman Coins, Greek Coins and Italian along with British. Many Many Many Thanks! I have been researching and reading. This is just wonderful. The date and origin is outstanding. This coin was found in Tennessee. I have another piece found in Nicholas County, Kentucky that was used to make "linen clothes" in the 6th Century on the North American Continent when this country was called ANNWN, "The Other World," 900 years before Christopher Columbus. I know anyone could have dropped the coin at any time in History. But I also know this coin has been buried since the 6th or 7th Century. Again thank you Charlie.

My thoughts too and hasn't been buried in Tennessee since the 6th or 7th Century (in my humble opinion).
True, but real ancient Greek & Roman coins have been found in the US, probably the kids playing with them outside from Dad's collection.
