Roman Silver

[folkert]

found this morning: although a contemporary counterfeit (copper core. silver plated) it still is a nice denarius of Antoninus Pius (138-161 AD).

I believe it is a fouree,an ancient copy and quite common,especially during the Roman Republic.They were often made ,on the QT,by Mint workers.They can be more valuable today ,than the coins they copy.

it must be cool to be able to hunt places that have coins like that.
