Hi,

Coin-1: 3.15 grams



Coin-2: 3.75 grams



Coin-3: 1.85 grams



Thanks!

Sujit,

​I did, but too many to look for. :)

Will be great if someone can point to right direction.

Indeed a lot of them.
If you can read some parts of the legend, you can use the word search.
Here are you coins with better contrast:

First one should be possible to id. Do I read FEL TEMP REPARATIO on reverse? Maybe check Constantius II?

​Thanks!! I think i found it

This should be the Numista entry? https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces31304.html

Close, but a different emperor? I think I can read -TIVS PF AVG on the obverse of yours so ​in that case you should at least have an emperor that ends with -tius

​I don't know about this particular coin but for the few I have there have been different entries on numista depending on which mint the coin comes from. I think you should go here and identify the mint

Last letter might be a Γ?

Since there are so many different roman coins there's a chance yours isn't on numista yet, you might have to add it yourself
Will do, Thanks! Any idea on other two?

​Sorry, no ideas from me. I picked the first one because I have some coins from the same era and could recognize it, the other two are probably identifiable as well but I have quite limited knowledge of roman coins :)
Thanks for trying! I will wait for some clue on the rest two.

I really hope someone can help you with this because you already helped identifying sooooo many coins for others and you seldom ask for help yourself.
I wish I could but I don't collect ancient coins and I don't know anything about them and that makes it very difficult to help you.

Thanks Essor Prof for your kind words! :)

First coin is probably this one or a variation of:

Roman Imperial: Constantius II (337-361 CE) AE Follis, Constantinople (RIC-87)

Obv: D N CONSTANTIVS P F AVG; Diademed, draped and cuirassed bust left, holding globe
Rev: FEL TEMP REPARATIO; Constantius II in military dress standing left, holding labarum and resting hand on shield set on ground; to left, two captives kneeling vis-à-vis; star above; CONSΔ* in exergue

Hi Ram,

Thank you! Looks very similar, though my coin is not good enough to read the letters as good as in your coin. Any idea on other two?

Hi Sujit,

I had to rotate the third image to read the legend. But I think I know which type it is. You will need to determine the variation yourself though :). I don't have this coin and hence this comes from wildwinds...

Antoninus Pius AR Denarius, RIC 181, RSC 281, BMC 670
Antoninus Pius Denarius. ANTONINVS AVG PIVS P P TR P XII, laureate head right / COS IIII, Salus standing facing, head left, holding patera & rudder on globe, feeding a serpent entwined around altar. RSC 281.

Thanks. the legends on reverse (Salus standing facing) seems to match, but i don't think my coin has the king with beard. Maybe another issue of this king? Also the metal seems to be bronze or copper than silver.

Definitely not a perfect match, but it points you to the right direction....
