Can anyone point me in the right direction for this one, I don't know where to start looking. I don't know the size or weight just yet.

Thats probably Augustus. The design is a 'founder' or 'colonist' driving oxen right, often described as ploughing. It will be provincial - it represents a founding member of a new colony. Theres a lot readable, so ill let you research it.

I think it is this one, but the coin in my photo is larger, 9.22grams, 28.72mm, but not too far out. I can't really read all the legend from the photo. IF I get it, I should be able to nail it.

Pish you are finding some really neat coins. That's a very nice provincial from Spain.
