Description
A Roman Imperial bronze coin. The obverse features a right-facing male bust, possibly laureate or radiate, surrounded by a partially legible Latin inscription including “IMP C…DIOCLETIA…AVG,” strongly suggesting the Roman Emperor Diocletian (*Imperator Caesar Augustus*). The reverse depicts a standing draped figure, holding scales in the left hand and another object, possibly a cornucopia, in the right, with a partial Latin inscription reading “…IOVI CONSERVA…” and possibly “…AVGG” (To Jupiter the Preserver, *Augusti*). The coin is composed of a base metal, likely a bronze or copper alloy.
Weight: 6.8 grams
