Found this nice little silver roman coin ,been told its Denarius of Trajan (dont ask me what that means),if anyone knows how to figure the date out i would be pleased.It would be at least 1600 years old but more than likely older.Ok i got a date on it now more or less 115 AD,which would make it about 1890 years old if my math is correct.

Marvelous job as usual Simon. I can't find the emoticon for the "green eyed monster". Thanks for sharing your finds.

Continued Good Huntin

This page: http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/ric/trajan/i.html has a lot of examples of Trajan coins. Trying to find an exact match will require some squinting though :P
