Whatever the triangular heck those two are, they're clearly the same type, which is why I'm posting them in the same thread.

(I bought both because I wasn't sure which one was in better condition.)

The larger one: 13 mm, 1.96 grams.

And the smaller one: 11 mm, but also 1.96 grams.

(This will sadly be all for tonight, because I'm running out of time. I hope to post the remaining 18 coins tomorrow.)

I am thinking either a well worn or barbarous Theodosius II with an Esty reverse type 63. ?

...Well, 63 or 61; there's no legend on the reverse that I could see, and the types are almost identical otherwise. I'd hedge the differences and say Tesorillo 130.

I'm leaning toward barbarous (or, at least, very crude) rather than worn, but it's hard to tell. Both coins are slightly smaller and slighly heavier than Esty's examples, and both have a circular line on reverse in the area where a legend would be expected (on the larger coin, it's very clear on the left side; on the smaller coin, a piece is visible right at the edge at 7-8 hours).
