    Good morning!

    I have these two prutahs that have been floating around in my collection for a while now because I have not been able to identify them. I thought they might both be Herod Agrippa, but they don't really match my other ones. The reverses of both coins are pretty rough. Do any of you know? Thank you!

    I think this might be the second coin? It seems to have the same letters as much as you can see?

    Just to help clarify, is the first picture of one coin, or one side of 2 coins?

    That is the coin I thought it was, but I am not seeing the same canopy (or whatever it is). Perhaps it is just worn.

    Two coins side by side. The first is the of the obverse side and the second of the reverse side.

    The canopy (i think it's called an umbrella) appears to go straight up from the letter "w", to me. I don't know what the rest is to the right of that, though?

    Yeah, I am not sure! The details are fuzzy. I see the canopy now. Before I thought it was just a small one up on the right, but I see it as a whole. Are there other varieties? It must be an Agrippa.
