[QUOTE="Herodotus, post: 5560166, member: 111387"]The 1st three are late Roman bronze coins. The 1st and 3rd have identifiable legends on the obverse/reverse — Complete enough to make an ID for what rulers they are — fairly easy. Try [URL]http://numismatics.org/ocre/identify[/URL] and plug in what parts of the legend one can make out. I’ll give you a few hints to hopefully help you out. I can make out LICI on the left side of coin #1, and I can make out TIVS AVG on the right side of #3. What do the right side of #1 and the left side of #3 read? I can make them out, can you? On #2 I can make out FEL & ????RATIO, and what appears to be a figure standing over another that has ‘fallen’. The 4th coin looks to be Medieval. Not my forte; perhaps others could chime in. The 5th coin is a commonly known Jewish/Judaea Prutah w/ what appears to be three ears of barley on one side and an umbrella on the other. A quick ‘google search’ will tell one who the ruler is.[/QUOTE]
