Need help veryfying atribution on Ancient Roman

I have been told this is a Denaris from 91 B.C. The flip also says "Sextus Juues" and "Lucias Saturninus". Since I don't deal in Ancients, even though the coin is Roman, it's Greek to me image

    Dan, Wildwinds is a great website, I use it quite a bit when I come across unusual stuff. If you are even going to dabble in Roman stuff you will need Sear. I don't collect Roman anymore, but I would still never part with my Sear set.

    I believe that coin is Sear-193v, moneyer - L. Appuleius Saturninus, minted c. 104 BC. Sear lists the coin at £40 in VF, IMO yours is closer to F so figure about £20. Rather common fare, but still how can a person go wrong with >2000 year old silver?
