possible Roman coin!!

So today, finally nice in the bluegrass, so I decided to go back to the colonial site way on the hill well no activity has been since 1800s, and I got a nice silver tone on the ace 250 so I dug down about 8 inches and this piped out, is it fake? What is it is the better question. The head raises up which sparks my suspicion.

See the little 'M' - thats a give away for a copy. I think its ancient Greek coin (copy).

I guessing its a repro

Notice the M in a circle under the bust

Haha I wrote the same thing as Cru was posting it

 

[Klclark3]

Man oh man wonder how.

 

[birdman]

Very neat none the less and most likely an old repro so maybe it is collectable its self.

 

[Klclark3]

Wonder why in my colonial site.

If it's silver, it's still a great find!

I found 2 roman coins on an old colonial site. Both copper/ bronze. Still trying to figure it out.

For some reason I cant get the quote button to work.

yeah the Romans were known to favor running around kentucky, especially during the derby

 

[Argentium]

Yeah , Cru correctly Identified this as a copy - and Greek not Roman - circa 300 BC. if genuine , cool find anyway ! mind blowing when you
dug that for sure .

So is the M like a makers mark?
