So I just acquired this old 19th century print that depicts some ancient coins. However, I really don't know the ID of these coins. Which emperors are depicted in these images? Or are these just fanciful recreations of Roman-like coins?

Never come across any of the types but they are certainly Greek. I've seen coins similar to the top two.

The jugate bust one shouldnt be hard to find.

Not Greek. Roman Republic. Pompey the Great (definitely the top left and probably the other two-- I'm checking right now)
