The second coin in your post seems to be a Roman coin of Vespasian, from Egypt. Similar to this one. https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/ma...Default.aspx
Number four is from Tibet, not ancient, probably minted in the 1900s
The third and fifth one are also Egypt, but a little earlier, Ptolemaic Egypt.
Number six is Byzantine.A follis as indicated by the letter M
Seven and Eight are both late roman bronzes
Nine appears to be a Roman Antoninianus, but also appears to be an ancient counterfeit since a base metal core seems to be showing thru a silver plated exterior.
Ten might be a Judean Prutah from the time of the Jewish revolt, maybe like this one.https://www.cointalk.com/threads/th...dent.292881/
Eleven looks like may be a "widows mite" coin. Also from Judea.
To get more precise IDs, clearer and better focused pics will be needed. But I hope this helps. |

| At this point I'm thinking it might be just a privately made silver bar of some type, or maybe an above mentioned regional clan piece. It does not look simular to any of those "fantasy pieces", this one is just too plain and crude in construction. It does appear to have been used in commerce at some point considering it has been cut down in size. The previous owner did think they had something, just too bad they didn't write out the whole title of the reference book, not just its initials. |

| 2 things would worry me about this coin if I were looking to buy it, one is the details around the eye, compare this one to the example posted on the NGC site.https://www.NGCcoin.com/price-guide...uid-1430825. The eye on your example looks empty in comparison. Second is I get suspicious when I see a large coin such as this with absolutely pristine fields, even the uncirculated one in the link above has some bag marks. And also upon further inspection the dentils get fully weak on the reverse from 7 to 10 o'clock and overall do not have the best shape, again compare to the above link. |
