Opinions please on these three. In particular, how is on the right?

Sorry about the pics.

Take my opinion for what it's worth, Ann (since I don't collect Romans, it may not be worth much)...but there's nothing here that gives me pause. They look kosher to me. Seem struck. Wear seems legit. Style is fine to my non-Roman-collectin' eye.

My first thought is a denarius of Marcus Aurelius...but that's just based on a cursory look...could well be wrong.

It might be, the shaggy hair and beard look familiar, can't think where I have seen it.

Of course there are other "shaggy" haired emperors: Commodus and Septimius Severus among them...Here's a similar Commodus:

They all look fine to me, though very worn and not really having much collector value.

Hard to see much on #3 but I believe it is Commodus.
Not much to look at really. You were hoping Didius Julianus maybe ?

I would pass unless they were dirt cheap. Stick to VF quality whenever possible !
Better to buy one VF follis of Constantius I than buy a pile of low end 'junk'.
