    Here is a mix few I came across
    and picked up.

    PARTHIA: Pakoros I (78-120) AR Drachm. Ekbatana, 3.38g, 19mm.
    Obv: Diademed head left, with long beard
    Rev: Archer (Arsakes I) seated right, no throne below, holding bow; monogram below bow; + above bow
    Sellwood 78.8 (Vologases III); Sunrise –.
    From the Shea19 collection, acquired from Aegean Numismatics (as Sellwood 78.3).
    Rare variety, distinguished from 78.3 by the cross above the bow
    Parthia Lot 83.jpg
    Byzantine Anonymous, attributed to Romanus III or Michael IV (1028-1034 or 1034-1041) AE follis. 11.43g, 27-32mm.
    Obv: +EMMA - NOVHA / IC - XC; Nimbate bust of Christ facing, square in each limb of cross; wearing pallium and collobium and holding book of Gospels
    Rev: IS-XS ЬASILЄ ЬASILЄ; Legend divided by limbs of cross with dot at each extremity on three-stepped base.
    SBC 1823, overstruck (probably on Class A2/3)
    Byzantine Lot 396.jpg
    Aurelian (270-275) AE Antoninianus, issued 271-72. Milan, 4.06g.
    Obv: Radiate and cuirassed bust right
    Rev: Fortuna seated left on wheel, holding rudder and cornucopia.
    RIC V 128
    Although the mintmark is off the flan, the style indicates this is a Milan issue rather than Siscia.
    Roman Lot 559.jpg
    Constantine I 'the Great' (307-337) AE follis. 2.95g, 21.5mm.
    Cuirassed bust right / Sol
    Constatine 1st 583.jpg
    Late Byzantine & imitations group (9 coins): includes Manuel I trachy, Isaac II trachy, Latin Rulers trachy, 2 Bulgarian trachies, Palaeologan trachies, and an Arab-Byzantine fals. Some scarce items!
