<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1228444, member: 19463&quot;]Rather than waiting for others to act, consider trying to ID them yourself.&nbsp; Here is a hint:&nbsp; Start with the reverses.&nbsp; Warren Esty has a good site that shows the reverses of the later late Roman coins.&nbsp; After you find your reverse on his list you can see which rulers issued that reverse and narrow it down from there.&nbsp; We need a similar site with the Earlier Constantinian coins (you have some from both periods) but look over this for a start:</p><p><a href="http://esty.ancients.info/ricix/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://esty.ancients.info/ricix/" rel="nofollow">http://esty.ancients.info/ricix/</a></p><p><a href="http://esty.ancients.info/ricix/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://esty.ancients.info/ricix/" rel="nofollow"><br /></a></p><p><a href="http://esty.ancients.info/ricix/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://esty.ancients.info/ricix/" rel="nofollow">W</a>hile I know it does not sound friendly, we need to remember that coins in poor condition are harder to ID than better ones.&nbsp; You will learn more at the start by buying 3 coins for $5 each than 15 at $1.&nbsp; With experience you will be able to read these lesser grade coins but it is not the place to start.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Who disagrees with any of the IDs provided so far?&nbsp; 3 looks like Constans; 5 Valentinian I to me.&nbsp; You?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
