Semi cleaned worn roman bronze dupondius?
« on: October 30, 2020, 01:36:05 pm »
Hi All,

Would appreciate some help identifying a hand cleaned bronze roman Dupondius

10.48 grams
Writing around rim so could be a Trajan or Hadrian?
SC on the reverse

The bulge along the hairline makes it look a bit like Nero but the reverse is more clearly Claudius.  I think it is a Claudius Minerva As.
