Roman land, 1 nice coin

Hi T-neter .

3 hours of good hunting

The last coin what is it?

 

[CRUSADER]

I like the 2 Solider 1 Standard, as the Chi-Rho in banner is so clear, & more unusual than the normal type.

Last coin (1 I haven't had):
Herennia Etruscilla:

Herennia Etruscilla, Roman Imperial Coinage reference, Thumbnail Index - WildWinds.com

I wonder if back in the day the coin was made they sold them in rolls at the bank and people would buy rolls to look through them. Nice coin.

No, its more 'like' a tombac metal. Its the bottom part of a bell.

What's tombac Cru?

 

[Mackaydon]

A tomac metal is alloy of copper with zinc and sometimes other metals, used in making inexpensive jewelry.
