I have no idea what the one on the right is, but it looks very interesting. I can tell you the one on the left is from Canada though.

Those must be from 1977 B.C.

did you find it in someone's house in a drawer?

>>5951762
I found it in the ground deep lol
I just wanna know the people on the front to do further research


sooo deep

The craftsmanship on that thing looks really amateurish and it wasn't made with a coin press. The first european trading posts didn't go up in Ontario until the mid 18th century. Even back then european coins were made with presses and had much higher quality. It's probably something a jeweler made.

Get it appraised by a professional like the people in the forum you hit up three days ago told you to do.

If it's real, /sci/ isn't going to know shit about it. If it's fake or a token, /sci/ still isn't going to know shit about it.

Find your local major museum and see if they can help you.

it looks roman to me.
if you just found it someone probably dropped it, which it is pretty rare to drop something like that.

I only want the forum to give the names of the characters on the coin, if enough smart people pass by the photo surely someone will recognize someone so i can research it further. if not, i wait till tomorrow.
Im a metal detectorist, it wasnt just on the ground lol

Your picture is too damn blurry for anyone to recognize the miniscule amount of text on the coin.

Find a museum or a historical appraiser.

Notice the bubbles near the nose, it's cast.

It's a trinket,seeing that you found it in ontario

A Canadian Roman coin.
Well I never.
Didn't realise they got that far.

>>5951762
it's not listed at tokencatalog.com

I'm a detectorist in the US, I sometimes find stuff like that. I figure it's a game piece or maybe jewelry or decoration.

yours doesn't ring any historical bells unless perhaps it's George the 6 and Elizabeth.

making portraiture that bad would be a crime though, possibly a capital offense.

It's probably roman, possibly greek. Of course that doesn't mean its incredibly valuble, Rome was a huge civilization and had tons of coins around.

>>5951940
romans and greeks struck coins on dies.

this isn't a struck coin.
it's some cast p.o.s.

Vaguely resembles some of these.

Do you think it's Greco-Roman because of the helmet? That sort of style has been made all over Europe long after the fall of Rome.
