[QUOTE="LaCointessa, post: 7833960, member: 87186"]Hi! I don't think it is impossible to attribute the first coin. You may need to examine it more closely. And it may need some tidying - but be careful. Have you tried to brush it a bit with a very soft tooth brush? Here is a link to a website I used a great deal when beginning to learn about Roman ancient coins. The webpage seems redesigned and looks like it will be even better than before with the inclusion of historical maps and Greek and Byzantine ancient coins, too. I am sure a non-Spanish speaker can easily figure out to use the site by looking at the various reverses, rulers and such. [URL]https://www.tesorillo.com/aes/index.htm[/URL] Then between that site and Wildwinds (very useful when trying to narrow down an attribution), you should be able to figure out your first coin. Good luck! [URL]https://wildwinds.com/coins/ric/constans/i.html[/URL] p.s. - edited to suggest perhaps that first one may be some type of fallen horseman... just a feeling. and here is the English version of the Tesorillo site: [URL]https://www.tesorillo.com/aes/home.htm[/URL][/QUOTE]
