PM Wednesday Hunt - Saved the day...

[CRUSADER]

Took a gamble that one of the Roman Sites we discovered last year would be harvested (it wasn't Monday). Gamble paid off & it was done but the cut straw was still laying in lines ready to be bailed.

This Wheat stubble in this weather is a killer

But I did managed a few finds & Dad had his first blank for ages.

Huge Roman Steelyard Weight
My Best Dandy Button

Debased or Fake Silver plated? Roman of Julia Domna AD193-211

Now it seems to be my turn the get a reverse Legend I can't find in Sears. Can anyone help? (I will give full details this time to not cause confusion);
ANTONINVS AVG PIVS PP TRP XVIII
Rev: FELICITAS COS IIII, SC in field. (should be AVG, not cos IIII)
27mm
10.98g

Is the weight for the Bronze coin

seams a bit light for a Sestertius and small



I think it could be Silver, on the Julia, just looks like a bit of iron seep, have you tryed genolite

SS.

Yes, the AM post. Dad got a button & the steelyard weight, so it wasn't a blank day, just a blank hunt.
