    I purchased a small grouping of coins and at the bottom were four ancient coins. I have no idea about any of them. Here's the first.

    It is Valens, brother of Valentinian.
    From Thessalonica.

    Valens and valentinian often look similar; look at the number of letters on the obverse to discern between the two.
