Do-These-Look-Real?


mostly both of the denarius coins but I also wanted to know who was depicted on the left coin.

look real to me, the bronzes have been used and abused, and can't tell who the left bronze is.

The left has the 'Libertas' reverse.
The one on the right seems to be the 'Concordia Exercituum' type with the clasped hands.

Rather than packing one image with so many pictures, it would be better to show them separately - allows for larger image and better chance to get identification help.
Would like to see a better picture of the denari before making an assumption on their genuineness.

Seems to me that with the right lighting (part of) the legend of the bronze could be read.
More of the profile is visible now, not enough for me but perhaps for the profile specialists.

They are all real. The two Denarius aren't bad.

Alright, I ended up buying both of the Denarius coins, Marcus Aurelius and Commodus for $30 total with shipping included,
might buy the coin on the right if its cheap.Pretty sure it's an As coin. is it Nerva or someone else?

Can't tell much from the legend, but going by the size of the nose, I would guess Nerva.
