Welcome. Can you post the images here?

Some might be identifiable - maybe. But it would take someone with much better eyesight than mine. These images seem to be about 8 KB apiece. Sorry, I can't help. And, no offense, but I won't click on links from new posters (and, technically, it's against CCF rules to post links when you're new). Better pics, along with weights/sizes, might help folks who feel like chiming in.
I will mention that the one with the lyre/kithara and head could be a 4th century BC issue from either the Chalcidian League or from Bottiaia (Spartolos), although Megara, Megaris is yet another possibility.
You also seem to have, in the mix, a Herakles/Athena combo. That could be from Pergamon (Mysia) or Alyzeia (Akarnania).

Thank you for the interest and help. I've posted the links because of the pics size. I will also weight and measure them if this would help.

The one with the tripod-looking reverse may be a Kyzikos issue, with Kore Soteira obverse.

Looks like the eighth one is an eagle/oinochoe combo from Kyme, Aeolis. The oinochoe is struck off-center, but the Y in the right field, from K-Y, is visible.

Again, you might want to look into Kyzikos for the one with the possible tripod reverse...is it number 16?
Those enlargements you just posted for two of the coins are exactly what is needed for each one. With better pics, some here may be able to be of much more help. Some members (I'm thinking about Novicius, in particular) are very knowledgeable with regard to small Greek AE's. Your coin with the horse galloping is possibly identifiable, but I can't even tell if there is a rider or not - knowledge which is needed for an ID. I see one with, maybe, a bull butting left - if so, it might suggest some possibilities, like Syracuse - but I'd need to confirm if the obverse has a left-facing head - and I can't tell with the tiny image you provided. I see another that might be a variant of a Neandia issue. The thirteenth might be from Pergamon (Mysia) or Alyzeia (Akarnania). I see another that might have a grape bunch reverse - which, if it were the case, might be suggestive. But, without better pics, and sizes, I have no idea, though. You get the point. I encourage to create new threads, two coins with good pics and with sizes, for each new thread.

I must say I'm grateful for your help Bob. Better pics can be access via the links I have post in the original thread. Anyway, I will try to check for myself if can identify more coins and come back with updates , but in the meantime you guys feel free to do the same if you can/want.  |

to CCF Just an FYI...many members here don't like to open unfamiliar links (due to security reasons) that's why it's always best to post pictures of 1 or 2 coin per posts here... Nice looking lot of coins, good luck with the ids |
