I put this on the fake forum but had trouble with pictures hopefull now corrected, I picked this up as part of a group of coins from an old French collection and was not able to view in hand until know.Questions have been raised is this and others genuine,the old ticket appears to be written in the style of a Victorian hand as I am familiar this type of script and paper in other areas I collect.This suggests if not ancient then the copy is at least 150 years old and possibly older but not a Paduan by the tru definition of the word.Any help appreciated I will poost the others as I go

This one is on the lite side.

Hadrian. AD 117-138. Æ Sestertius (32mm, 20.00 g). Rome mint. Struck AD 133-circa 135. Laureate and draped bust right / Roma standing right, holding spear and clasping right hand of Hadrian standing left, holding volumen. RIC II.3 2070
