    I put a low bid on these these 4 Tetradrachm and was surprised when I won them. They aren't in the best shape but I still love these chunky little coins. They were sold as Aurelian and Maximianus but honestly, I can't tell for sure.
    Can some one take a look and let me know what you think? Thanks!

    I think the first one, with the most green, is Numerian (A K M A NOVMEPIANOC CEB). Not sure about the others. I’d guess the bigger one as Claudius II looking at the portrait.
