    If you can, help this fella ("blaircountycoin") over on Collectors Universe ID his ancients?

    I've posted a link to this thread over there, so he can see any replies posted here.

    Sicily, Akragas/Agrigentum (eagle/crab). There are many varieties but these will get you started.

    Philip I "the Arab" AE Sestertius, struck in Rome c. 248, Ludi Saeculares issue for the games & Rome's 1000 year anniversary (a large, cool series of many types struck in all metals & various images for Philip I & II & Otacilia)

    Bruttium, I think. Zeus / Warrior w shield & spear. Similar designs were used for other large bronzes in Magna Graecia/Sicily, so I might remain open to other possibilities until taking a closer look
