    It's a billon tetradrachm minted in Alexandria, Egypt, during the Roman period. Looks to be 3rd Century AD. Not sure of the emperor right now, but once I get back to my books, there looks like there's enough of the obverse inscription to identify it. At least it wasn't one of the very brief emperors, as this fellow seems to have at least made it to his 2nd Alexandrian regnal year, as indicated on the reverse.
