This little beauty has now shown its true self after a very long soak in olive oil.
It came from my 'roman' field,sadly no longer available for me  to detect in due to possible change over of land ownership !!
But I would love to know exactly what this coin is..... PLEASE
Thanks for looking.....👍

It's a London mint follis of Constantine, SOLI INVICTO COMITI, with PLN as mint mark, but what seems like S-M/P in the fields. I haven't found the exact match yet, usually when there are three symbols in the field one of them is a star. It dates to around 316AD
