Hello 

I have a small roman? coin.

Obverse has Jupiter on the throne holding his staff and in the other hand his lightning bolts, with the inscription IVPITER CVSTOS which means Jupiter the Defender?

 Reverse we have a figure sewing, two doves either side, in the left corner the wolf and two infants suckling on her, I assume Romulus and Remus. The coin 2.54g , 20mm diameter, made of a metal like silvered bronze or maybe electrum. Can you help identifying and vale it, please?

Sorry but I don't think it's a real coin.

 

The letter font, the pictures, all points to being a modern token/medal.
