How much is a 2000 year old coin worth?

Depends on the coin. Some 2000 year old Celtic, Roman, Greek, etc. coins are quite valuable particularly in uncirculated condition or for coins minted in silver or gold. On the other hand, 2000 year old Roman bronze coins are worth a dollar or two (or less) in poor condition. Age does not equal rarity and rarity does not equal value. Without seeing the coin in person it is impossible to really say whether it is a common coin worth only a dollar or two or a coin worth a few thousand dollars.
