I don't know anything about Roman coins, except that they are really old and really cool

I am thinking Valentinian, because I think I found the reverse.

Thank You
 
I think its Valentian too
i found many of these
 
very nice find! thanks for sharing
 
Other posters are close but the coin is not a Valentinian I which looks very similar but is actually a VALENS AD364-375. You can tell this by the obverse legend which is DN VALEN-SPFAVG and the mint [??IS?]looks like a SISCIA one but it is not that clear so could be something else.
