My friend found this coin in rome was hoping to find out if it is of value

A real ancient coin would be in way worse condition.
So no.

Not really, theyre made of metals which preserve well and are usually stored somewhere safe when discovered

Looks fake tbqh

Is it stamped "Veni Vidi Vici" and "copy" on the back?
>>
>>1210661
Unless you provide us with a little more detail, such as how and where the coin was found, I will assume this is tourist tat and worth the same as my belly button fluff.

It's not a coin. It's a medal copy.

My friend found it beneath the colosseum

Heres a real ancient coin
>>
>>1210724
If that's true, it's because some tourist dropped it in the last 60 years.
>>
So how much could it be worth ?
>>
>>1210734
To someone who really wants a tourist souvenir, but can't get to Italy? Maybe 5 to 10usd in that shape?

It's one of the variety that didn't even bother with the font. I don't even think it's attractive,

>>1210734
take it to a pawn shop and try to get a thousand bucks

So are these. Some preserve worse than others, stop being so obtuse.

Some look like this.

It's a novelty coin. Worth next to nothing.

>>1210661
Fake peddled by scum at the market. Fuck off.
>>
>>1210661
Looks fake.

I have a Diocletianic coin in my wallet at all times to bring me luck.

It's a fake cast coin, not even remotely convincing either.
