    I dunno. I can't see the front page. Do you mean the cover? And which would be the "third" coin? Bottom right? Looks like a silver denarius from the Roman Imperial period. The top right is a denarius of the Roman Republican period. The larger coin at left is a Greek tetradrachm of Alexander the Great.

    You found a silver coin in one of those uncleaned lots?

    Not the same coin as the one pictured on the book, and it definitely looks to be a bronze coin.
  • Yea any idea what I have or anything.

    You have a bronze Roman Imperial coin, but there is no way to identify it from a small, one-sided picture. As Conder101 pointed out, it is NOT a silver denarius like the one on the cover of the book.
