Roman – Coin

Finds from Wirral

Roman – Coin

We have recovered a number of Roman coins. Four of these are listed on the PAS database and we have a couple more awaiting verification. 
 
They normally look like the one above which has been verified as a Roman Sestertius but cannot be dated more accurately that AD41- AD260. 
 
Portable Antiquities Scheme Statement:

An incomplete and corroded copper alloy Roman sestertius of unclear type, dating to the period c.AD 41-260. Both faces are illegible. Unclear mint.
