    Thread resurrection.

    You can see some of the brassy color peeking out on this Nero.

    (And, of course, the space shuttle flying behind the figure on the reverse.) image

    Pretty sure it is brass and Roman, but that is it. I thought it was a neat one with two heads.

    Looks like a dupondius and the reverse is on the left of that image.

    -rev Marcus Aurelius

    -obv Anoninus Pius (Hadrian's adopted son)

    I'm an amateur at ancient attribution.
    Hopefully another member can confirm.

    Nice Augustus Dabigkahuna.
    I can't make the identification but that could possibly be Caligula sitting on the curule chair reverse.
    Two Caesars - one coin.
