enigma_loner Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 Hello all.Started a small collection of silver roman coins about 5 years ago. Got paperwork or managed to work out what most of them are, but can't find anything for these 2.Could anyone help?Many thanksBen Quote
Peckris Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 I don't recognise either, though my knowledge of Roman is moderate only.The first one has an obverse typical of an earlyish emperor, but that reverse is like nothing I've ever seen.The second one could possibly be Greek, but equally it could be a local imitation of an established type.

As Peck says, could be local imitations. Quote
