Here's another coin I hope meets the standards of WildWinds.  Do you have
the
RIC number for this one as I don't trust the Pegasi attribution of this
coin.
They say Mint Rome, AR Antoninianus aXF RIC 14.  Well, it's minted in
Antioch, it's silvered, and common as rain, not rare. RIC 14 has a great
chance of being dead wrong.
