Please help me ID my Roman coin-new better photos

[Golden Oldie]

I hope these photos will help someone ID this Roman coin. They have been brightened to give more detail. Thank, Pat

I don't know, but based on the portrait, I'd guess Antoninus Pius or Marcus Aurelius.

Thanks, Thing

 

I'll do some more research on those two names and see what I can find.

If you could give us all of the lettering on the obverse that you can see it might help.

Here are high magnification photos of the coin letters. First photo is at the 9 o'clock position and I can see S CAESAR

The second is at 3 o'clock position and I can't make out much of anything.

Based on your last image, it looks to me like you can see "Antoninus". I can't be sure of that, but I would recommend you follow up on Antonius Pius. If I get some free time, I'll start looking. You might check out Wildwinds.com (recently hacked, so it might be hard to navigate, but worth a try), do a search on Vcoins.com and do a "research" search over at cngcoins.com. Also, to help narrow your search, I think that is "Victory" standing on the reverse.

Thanks so much. I will check out your leads and let you know if I find something.
