A late Roman copper-alloy nummus. The reverse depicts a very feint outline of Victory advancing left. The coin could be a 'SECVRITAS REIPVBLICAE' issue of the House of Valentinian (364-78) or a 'VICTORIA AVGGG' of the period 388-402. The diameter of the coin may suggest the latter as it does not appear to be a copy.
