Any roman coin expertise on here

out cycling in north west Durham on Sunday, very muddy when got back. Anyway, on cleaning my bike and shoes down and washing away the mud I found this coin, assuming it’s not fake, anyone any idea if it’s of any value?

Maybe quite a bit?

Any idea what the three characters are stamped on the edge of the coin in the second picture? Loads of souvenier ones apparently that are stamped, and also lots of fake originals around.

WRL stamp indicates replica apparently

That’s a fake I’m afraid, made in their thousands by a Midlands firm as part of a Roman coin pack. There are lots about, and loads of copies of the copies....You can buy a decent, original Caesar “elephant denarius” for about £75, so you weren’t in the big money either way.

What did the Romans ever do for us???

Westair Reproductions Limited say WRL should be on both sides.

Well in this case they certainly didn’t do anything for @damj .

What have the romans ever done for us anyhow?
