Need help on identifying a Roman coin

Dear gurus:

I got yesterday this coin, I believe is Roman, but being too worn is too hard to me to identify it:



looks like copper,
weight: 13.88g
diameter: 28.5mm (max)
thickness: 3.5mm (max)

Thank you in advance for info.

Any clue? Still looking for this.

The style of the bust is close of the very early empire but the reverse does not ressemble any roman reverse type I know. The reverse makes me think a bit of the lion that can be found on some indo-scythian issues if I remember right. However, I don't remember to have seen any combination of a bust like this and an indo-scythian lion.

I don't think it Is roman, and if it is, it would probably be a provincial issue under Augustus (or more unlikely Tiberius).

I think it's worth to have a look in the ancient eastern coinage. I'll see if I can find anything more precise when I'm home.

Hello all.

About the mysterious coin, a friend from Argentina asked his specialized colleagues, and they gave a fairly good identification.

Coin is and is not roman, as I thought, it´s from Hispania. They said is a AS from Castulo Kastilo, they gave me this picture, and from start of 2nd century BC.


Coin is not listed on Numista, I will get better pictures and create page.
