Is there any way to get better pictures?  When I try to enlarge them, they get blurry quickly.  It should be easy to identify with clearer photos.

Hi solon,

The inscription in the first photo reads: "...P...AIC...KAICAP". In English, that roughly translates into: "...R...AIS...Caesar".

I was wondering if the obverse is Antoninus Pius, with the reverse, Marcus Aurelius as Caesar.

Actually, with the bigger photo, I can see the (possible) reverse legend begins with  :Greek_Alpha: :Greek_Upsilon: :Greek_Rho: :Greek_Eta: :Greek_Lambda: :Greek_Iota: :Greek_Omicron:

And the (possible) obverse legend begins with  :Greek_Alpha: :Greek_Nu: :Greek_Tau: :Greek_omega_small: :Greek_Nu:
