Could it be something like this? Those are grapes and grape leaves on one side. This coin is from Judaea. Maybe yours is a reproduction.

My first reaction: Reminds me of a Jewish Bronze Coin of Shimon Bar Kochba 132 – 135 CE, similar to this one:

[veronasteve]

[Felinepeachy]

Well there always is with these types of coins. No two are ever exactly alike.

 

[GOLDandSilver]

yeah, now deep was it?

There are some groups that are always looking for proof of pre-Columbian contact! (myself included!)

Hey I found one like it a couple of years ago in St. Mary of the Woods Terre Haute Indiana!!!!

 

[geckokid]

It was found under the floor boards in a old house, on the ground.
Any idea what something like this is worth?

 

[QUICKSILVER (appletree)]

All I was told was it is a biblical coin like a widows mite!

 

[geckokid]

Where could I sell this coin.

 

[Ramitt]

Ebay?

 

[blurr]

Does it look like it was plated at one time? Looks like something is wearing off of it.
