    The first coin is Emperor Maximianus, with a reverse similar to this on Wildwinds: milne_4820.jpg (600×298). The example on Wildwinds has a B, indicating year 2, the different letter on your coin indicates a different year of his reign.

    I think there was a typo; Constantius I as Caesar (293-305).

    your second coin--

    Constantius I
    A.D. 296- 297
    FL VAL CONSTANTIVS NOB C; laureate head.
    GENIO POPVLI ROMANI; Genius standing left, holding patera and cornucopiae.
    In ex. S
    RIC VI Rome 66a


    the S in the exergue is actually a digamma — so it's 6th workshop
