    I dug these out as I was going through world junk coins in dealer's bins. I think I paid $1.00 or less for each of these but have no idea what they are. I would love some assistance on country, year, info on the three coins photographed.
    The first one has a discernable B for a mint mark and the letters ANA on the other side.
    The second says L. Marcrionni? And Cinco GR _ _ OS on the side with the seated figure and Cinco Centimos and Dosicentas Pie…..? on the side with the lion and shield.
    I have no idea what I’m looking at on this possibly ancient coin.
    Thank you in advance and sorry for the poor photography, I was in a rush!

    No idea on the first. The second one is a Spanish coin and the last one looks like an ancient. Sure more people will give more detail but that's all I know.

    The first 2 coppers photo'd look like Spain Centimos coins. Early 1800's.

    The Ancient below, I have no clue. I never owned an Ancient.

    The ancient coin looks like a Roman Antoninus Pius denarius.

    Possibly a Fortuna reverse.

    The size and weight would help.

    :)

    Love the bins at the coin shop, have spent hours poking around in them. Last time I was in there I didn't have much time and just ran in to get some 2x2's. When the guy checked me out he said that he couldn't believe I didn't hit the bins.

    It would be far easier if the coins were out of the holders.

    Yes, it's very much like this one! I'm struggling to determine which one though. It's got a 2 S in the center, so 2 Sols. At first, I thought it was 623.1, but the mint mark is high, like the 1 S shows. I believe I see a 1 and 7 below the B. Maybe 621.3?
