Can anybody accurately id this denarius please ?
I have been told that the reverse is not normally on this coin and it may be a contemporary forgery or a mule, can anybody confirm this
Thank you for looking

It would appear to be a mule, with an obverse of Domitian (as Caesar), and a reverse of his father, Vespasian.
OK to upload with new photos showing coin on a plain background. |
