Hi
I thought I'd share with you this beautiful collection of small ancients which I have recently purchased. (Moesi, Thrace, Macedonian and roman)

I know what each of the different coins are but I was wondering if anyone with a greater knowledge than me (most people!) could tell me some rough values for the different coins? Any help or information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

@cur0005, You have some interesting pieces there.

Best practice is to post one coin per thread and show pics of front, back, and edge. Also, please include diameter and weight. Some of these coins' denominations are based off of the size and while it may be possible to estimate all the sizes based off calculations of relative sizes to other coins, it is more straightforward to just have the measurement. Lastly, since you know what these all are, if you could please include that info in each title, then that will make it easier to find your threads in the future. Thx!

Looks like a nice, I just want to echo what Dave said about posting one or two coins at a time. You also have two images of the obverse so we need to see one of the reverse.

I would point out that you have a group of coins that are particularly frequently counterfeit. These Messembria coins, Istros and Appellonia coins are quite dangerous to buy. Some of the fakes are hard to detect and quite numerous.

Not to cast any doubt on your coins, but where did you get them? Coins such as this I would only buy from reputable dealers since I think I would be vulnerable to being swindled if I bought them randomly online.
