Wow...I love this place.
What’s the age on something like this?
And are you a wizard?

Looks Roman. They actually aren’t as rare as you’d think

That appears to be it. I was having trouble seeing the writing but it definitely looked Roman.

From what I’m seeing it dates back possibly as early as 348 AD
Imagine the hands it could have passed through.
Soldiers, sailors, whores and hangmen.
It’s the oldest thing man made thing I own now, other than fossils.
Would be cool to write a story imagining the journey of the coin from minting to my hand

Think the letters say “MIONSTA” or something like that.
Could it say “MOIST”?

A good movie or show with a disappointing ending.
Don't worry, it wouldn't be the first to not stick the finale.

Finale would be flipping the coin and suddenly Being back at the day it was minted

Probably some Roman’s old arse penny.
Posted on 6/18/20 at 11:38 pm to fr33manator
Probably worth about a million according to my personal coin collector expert

Oooooh, each episode is a day in the life of the holder of the coin, and it changes history

It’s Roman, 3rd century, worth about 20 bucks. Probably picked up by Gi in WW2.

Don't say that word.
