    here are a few ancients I'm trying to ID. I think the first is roman, Constantine about 450 from what I could match to photos but I'm not sure.
    First two are 1cm last two are 60-70mm
    Thanks!

    The first two coins look like Roman provincials--local city coins from the Roman provinces. There are some provincial experts who are members of this forum who and probably help you. I recommend posting both of the coins separately with a heading long the lines of "Need Help IDing Roman Provincial" to get their attention.

    The third coin is a nummis of the 5th century Byzantine emperor Anastasius. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anastasius_I_Dicorus)

    The first is Greek of one of the Antiochus kings. The name is legible at the left. None are Provincials IMO. I sincerely doubt all of these lined up together approach 60mm.
