[QUOTE="AnemicOak, post: 232849, member: 5224"]Ok, as I said the first one is Byzantine. I've got basically no experience with them so I'm not sure of the ruler, perhaps Justin II, Tiberius II or Maurice Tiberius, but thats just a guess from looking at some pics of other coins. The second coin is Roman... Arcadius (383-388 AD) - Constantinople Mint Obverse: D N ARCADIVS P F AVG, diademed, draped & cuirassed bust right Reverse: VIRTVS EXERCITI, emperor standing facing, holding spear & sheild, being crowned by Victory standing left, CONSB in exergue. The third & fourth I had some trouble making out the complete legends (someone else might have better eyes), but here's what I guess... Third - Constantine I ~ Campgate Reverse (can't really read the mint mark) Fourth - Constantine II with VOT X Reverse (could be one of his brothers, but I think it's him) These pics from my gallery will give you a better idea of what the Campgate & VOT reverses look like...
