    Trying to help someone with ID and approx. value. Maybe some of the ancients collectors here, have seen some of these coins and would recognize them off the top of their head. I'm sure any help would be appreciated. Cheers!

    #4 is Nero
    #5 looks like Faustina
    #6 looks like it might be Clodius Albinus (rare)
    #7 Antonius Pius
    #8 Antonius Pius
    #10 Claudius
    #11 Antonius Pius
    #12 Faustina
    #16 Augustus
    #17 Hadrian
    #18 Claudius ?
    #21 Nero

    All of the Ancients can be identified fully with better images. Perhaps single images would make it a lot easier.

    #22 and 23 Gordian III
    #24 Julia Domna (?)
    #9 Severus Alexander
    #15 Nero and Druses Ceasars
    #26 Pupienus (rare)

    Without better images I cannot tell you if these are authentic or not. Some of the coins shown are rare and are frequently faked.

    Not mine, I am on the clueless side here. Thought some of you might appreciate looking at such a lot. I don't even know what we're looking at.:oops:

    I wish, I'll have to attempt it like a 1000 piece puzzle. Not my photos, not my links. Sorry for the mix and match.

    I'll give this a try, but I only have a limited time. I will ID the coin as best I can. You can look on www.acsearch.info for approx. value.

    The first coin I can ID is coin number 4:
    RIC 196: Nero AE Dupondius. Rome mint, ca 64 AD. NERO CLAVD CAESAR AVG GER P M TR P IMP P P, radiate head right / VICTORIA AVGVSTI S-C, Victory flying left, holding wreath and palm, II in ex. Cohen 338 var.

    Thank you. There is no rush. Any effort is greatly appreciated. Thanks for the link. I believe most of the links I added are showing obverse and reverse, one following the other.
