I have here a couple of ancients that need identified. They might be a little worse for the wear but hopefully there's enough here to make something of them. The first one was already cleaned when I received it and the second one I am currently cleaning myself. It was almost a completely encrusted when I bought it at a local shop for 2.00. Feel free to let me know how I did so far, I'm open to constructive criticism and tips for cleaning as I am just starting out with it.

I'm sorry to say you paid too much for these. There might be enough detail on the reverse of the first coin to get close to an ID, but the second coin is too far gone. I'm sorry for being so harsh.

Thank you both for the help and the criticism, it helped me review and make some changes to my cleaning methods a bit.
