Unknown fouree denarius
« on: July 09, 2014, 08:51:03 pm »
Dear all,

Will appreciate if anyone has an idea on the attribution of this coin. I believe it's a fouree denarius due to the brown spots and broken plating. It weighs 2.92 g and has a die axis of 6h.

It looks like there's an "AVG" on the obverse legend, and what looks like Concordia on the reverse. That's all I can make out.

I see VESP on the obverse as well, so probably Vespasian.
