Hi Everyone, I'm really hesitant to have two ID posts at once, but after the enormous help on the other post, I would really appreciate any help with IDing these two. I'm usually pretty good at identifying roman imperial coins, but when it comes to provincial coins, I'm pretty bad. The bronze coin with the eagle almost looks like the later Alexandrian tetradrachms, but in bronze so perhaps counterfeit? Any help would be greatly appreciated! The pics aren't the best, there the best I have to work with at the moment. Thanks in advance!
I seem to have found an example for the type with the two wrestlers, same as this type: Any idea on emperor?
Here's another example of the first coin: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=4645561 "Roman Provincial Syria, Seleucis and Pieria. Laodicea ad Mare. Elagabalus. A.D. 218-222. AE 18 (18.32 mm, 5.33 g, 12 h). IMP C M AVR ANTONINVS, Radiate bust right, with slight drapery / LAVDICEON // ΔЄ, Herakles and Dionysus, both nude, grappling with one another like wrestlers; Herakles, on left, has a muscular body and is bearded, his club behind him in left field; Dionysus, on right, has long hair gathered in a bun; his thyrsos with knobbed ends is behind him in right field. SNG Hunterian 3224; Cf. BMC 105-8 var. (legend); Cf. SNG Copenhagen 373." Boy, they really read a lot into the reverse imagery, didn't they?
