trying to ID a Quinarius
its about 14mm
1.65gm
it was heavily corroded needed to be cleaned to even come close to Iding it
obverse is bust right
reverse appears to be victory seated left? ( or standing? cant tell)
i believe
it could be one of several coins
someone told me it is augustus but the bust doesnt look like it
I am guessing M. Porcius Cato\
or maybe Cato Uticensis. 47-46 b.c.
or L. CALPURNIUS PISO FRUGI.

I can't get enough details from that photo. Sorry. I do see the sitting angel, so you may have it.
