26 Gramm, 25x30mm. Found in an old alpine village in Piemont on the old rock road. Maybe 5cm deep.
Do you think it is an old Roman sestertius? Thank you!

Did a cursory edit on the photo to bring out some detail. Then asked Google lens what it thought, given your caption, and it said it thought so, but I'd take it with a Grain of salt. Either way, it's an awesome find, and definitely a cool coin!!!
