This is a coin a friend bought from some idiot for $1.00!!!!! I know this guy was a real crack head! :tard:
Anyway, not sure if it is real or not. It has some patina green to it like iots been in the ground a while, but it is copper. I didnt know if Roman made copper coins or not, or is it just a reproduction. I have seen a coin just like this one on eBay for sale.

Hi.... your coin is a Roman Coin of Diocletian :thumbsup: the link PBK gave you is a very good site for Roman Coins, this one is very similar to yours but there are a few reverse types that are very similar. TK.
