Can you help me to identify and classify this coin?
It seems to have a plated skin.




Thanks

Hi Filipe.

Looks like a Gallienus Antoninianius from Rome

Obverse: GALLIENVS AVG, Radiate head right  
Reverse: AETERNITAS AVG, Sol standing half-left, raising right and holding globe in left,  :Greek_Gamma: left

Maybe someone can confirm/reject this as this is my best guess.

Cheers,

-Kurt
