    I need some information on these two coins I have. They look to be Roman, but I can't seem to find an identical match. If someone knows where I can find one on the web, I would appreciate it. Thanks in Advance

    Caracalla and Hadrian..but both are fake. Notice the "R" on both the reverses, that shouldn't be there. That and the uneven strike and odd metal makes it pretty easy to tell for me.

    Unfortunately I agree.

    Sadly, I agree as well. There's no question that those are fakes.

    Thanks guys for also saying they are replicas. I opened up the post and immediately the coins looked suspect.

    Besides the letter R and the metal and strike, I think these are fantasy pieces since neither look either familiar or look like how Romans designed their coins.

    Thanks

    Thanks for your input. I had a feeling about them before I got them.
