Bought these coins on ebay from Ryans Coins. I paid $5 each from a random selection of coins. They're pretty well centered and you can see the image but I don't know the Emperors, so I could use some help.

#1 1.01 gm 12.1 mm

Hi Victor
How do you tell a Constantius I from a Constantius II? Are they marked on the coins somehow?

Nice examples! I like that they have a circulation cameo.

Constantius I has a beard while Constantius II never had one.

The coin types are also very different. Here are two common types of Constantius coins that were never struck for his grandson--

radiate Antoninianus circa 22mm 3.5g

laureate follis circa 27mm 10g
