no Roman coins were based off of the phonecians so the phonecians influeced the modern coin system. and that is still a tenuos comparison
That is a very tough question to answer. There are several denominations of Roman bronze coins, so for that, I would need more information on the coin.
During most of the Roman Republic gold coins were called Aureus and silver were Denarius
Roman coins were manufactured by first melting metal, usually bronze, silver, or gold, and pouring it into molds to create coin blanks. These blanks were then struck with engraved dies to imprint designs and inscriptions on both sides of the coin. Finally, the coins were trimmed and polished to create a finished product.
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.
The Roman silver coins were not Republic. In the Late Republic Rome had two gold coins (the denarius and quinarius), two silver coins (the denarius and sestertius), five bronze coins (the as, semis, triens, quadrans, quincux and uncia) and a brass coin, the dupondius. The first Roman Emperor, Augustus, scrapped the the triens, quincux and uncia. He turned the sestertius and dupondius into coins made of orichalcum (a golden coloured copper-alloy) and the as into a pure copper coin. The semis was produced infrequently and was no longer issued by the time of Hadrian. The quadrans was also produced sporadically and only up to the time of Antoninus Pius. Augustus also introduced a new gold coin, the Aureus. The monetary system introduced by Augustus was replaced by a new system introduced by the emperor Diocletian (reigned 284-305 AD).

Yes but you probably won't get much for it. Generally Roman coins go for $50 to $100 USD. A coin specialist can tell you specifics.

condition always helps determine value but on ancient coins they are saleable even if pretty rough, for example ancient roman coins
