Whats this coin

I was given this the other day and I have no idea what it is or where to start. If anyone has any idea I would be very appreciative

 

Looks a bit like some kind of trade ducat maybe.

 

It might not be an actual Roman coin, but the bust looks vaguely like one of Trajan

Just a suggestion, maybe put....
* Weight
* Size
* Type out legend/lettering
* Material if you know what it is

 

Thanks for the input. The only other information I have is that it is coin-allignment, weighs 22.73gm and that the legend flows the entire circumference of both sides of the coin. Im guessing it's a fake actually but will try to have it xrfd if I get the chance. Im guessing maybe bronze..

 

Hiya.

I have a Trajan Sestertius that looks very similar and very similar weight (24.6g) , although the reverse is different. He ruled for a loooong time, so loads of issues with him on..



If you do get it XRF'ed I would be interested in the results.

It does look quite similar! Hopefully ill be able to get someone to have a look next week.
