An incomplete and heavily corroded copper-alloy Roman coin, possibly a nummus of the House of Constantine dating to the period c.AD 320-323 (Reece Period 16). Unclear reverse type, possibly a BEATA TRANQVILLITAS type depicting a Globe on an altar, three stars above? Unclear mint. It is possible that this could equally be a mid-4th century (c.AD 348-361) contemporary copy, but the reverse type is not clear enough to give a precise identification.  Measurements: Diameter: 21.9mm Thickness: 2.6mm Weight: 4g
