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.


Was roman money measured in asses?

Yes, Roman money was measured in "asses," which were bronze coins used in ancient Rome. The term "as" refers to the singular form of the coin, and it was one of the foundational units of currency in the Roman monetary system. Over time, the as was replaced by more valuable coins, but it remained a significant reference point for measuring wealth and trade throughout the Roman Empire.
