Roman Coin - need assistance identifying emperor and time frame

[ivan salis]

Coin type is that of an AS and Roman. That is all we know at this time. The firgure on the back is a female standing with her right arm up and the left arm stretched to the side. Says "Caesar" at the top above the head.

I found this and they are facing right.

this one says
"CAESAR" AND IS LEFT FACING -- thinking earlier time frame than the right facing ones above

It looks like a coin of the Emperor Nero possibly a Dupondius, I will try for a picture match.

i was thinking due to left facing bust -- might be nereo or possible "agrippa and augustus " type coin

[ivan salis]

on the rear can make out a figure -- left hand streched left -- right hand upward

Leave it...the green is the patina, wrap it it in tissue with Olive oil, it should bring some more detail out

SS

 

[ivan salis]

will try that --olive oil soak

 

[Silver Searcher]

will try that --olive oil soak

Not soak....allow the olive oil to be soaked up by the tissue, just cover the coin and wrap

I have got all the Vols now (except 1 that is hard to find), & they were all given to Dad as an Xmas prezzie. Anyway, we need more letters to be sure. However, I think you are spot on with Nero.

Although, he is facing the other way in the one below, the reverse type might be to same - GENIO AVGVSTI

Might be either because he has pictured it up-side down. Or if looking at it correctly then the cornucopia looks like a raised hand I'm not 100% & it would be hard to get with no reverse letter at all (pretty much best guess). The fact you got Nero, he should be happy

Played with the picture a bit Cru, looks more like a seated figure, Roma or something on those lines...similar to this one on wildwinds Ric 517
