>1,700 year old coin<

My Dad bought a 1,700 year old coin at the flea market, for $16.00!

Looks like it's made of dirt  tongue

Pretty old though. Probably worth over $500.

you'd think it would be worth around that much, but my dad and I looked it up and it's really only worth about $50.  sad

Strange. Wonder what it's made of? SILVER?! Probably not, but that'd be awesome, and a steal for only $16.00
