    Julia Domna Matri Castrorum reverse

    Possibly #2 is Trajan. The reverse might help confirm it.

    coin 2 looks like Hadrian. Show us the reverse, even if you think the coin has no detail, we may spot something.

    zumbly Ha'ina 'ia mai ana ka puana

    AR stands for argentum, meaning silver.
    Rome is for where the coin was struck, the Rome mint.
