[QUOTE="nerosmyfavorite68, post: 8370743, member: 134416"][URL]https://www.wildwinds.com/coins/sb/i.html[/URL] I'm a bit rusty on the anonymous folles series. You'll find the answers at this link. Look under the 1700s-1800s numbers; the 970s to 1050s A.D. Actually, that might answer all of them. Per the ones I could name, the bottom one seems to be a corroded Heraclius. The mint looks to be Th[eup] (Antioch) and Year 9? But 9 would make no sense for Antioch, as it was occupied by the Persians. I believe there were some obscure Heraclius coins with Theup mintmarks. It sure looks like a T to me. I'd have to see if the Theopolis (Antioch) mint had an uppercase H or lowercase h, but I can't find the reference which had plates of the enigmatic Heraclius Theopolis coins. Perhaps someone with better eyes could chime in? The next to bottom one (the one with the bucket head) is either Heraclius or Maurice Tiberius, Nikomedia mint. I never cared much for Nikomedia's style, so I have very little experience with those to nail it down. Every one but the last two ones, $2-4? Next to bottom coin, maybe $10-ish? If I'm misreading a T on the heraclius two figure type at the bottom, it might be Nikomedia.[/QUOTE]
