I thought this was a penny, until I looked a little closer.
I took it to a local coin shop, and he couldn't identify it.
I can meaure and weigh it, but I doubt that will help.
It appears to be copper.
It's pretty toasted, but I'm sure one of you guys will know what it is.
Thanks for any help.

It has what appears to be a man standing beside a bull. It looks like the man might be holding a spear.

Cru'dads thoughts:

' The C4th Roman coin you correctly ID’d is possibly an emperor CONSTANS. I believe I can make out lettering fragments equivalent to ??CONSTAN-SPFAVG and it has his sort of head relief. The Rev is too confused so the coin is circa AD330-348. '

Follow up:
Rev: Soldier spearing Fallen Horseman type. In which case should be 17-20mm and weigh about 1.4 to 2.0gm.

Thanks for the ID, I wonder how it got to Tennessee.
I was wondering if this one wasn't toasted to the point
of not being IDable. But, once again Tnet comes through.
You guys are amazing.

HH,

Dig
