That first one, the Roman Republic As with Janus and the prow, that is a common coin so it goes by grade more than rarity unless there is something really interesting on the prow of the ship etc. So that one grade wise is OK on the Prow side but better than most on the Janus head side. So at $40 I'd be happy, $50 I'd be OK and $70 I'd be mad at myself. Still in a retail show they will want $90 and you can't blame them.

Here is the Iberian coin. It does not trade enough for me to make a specific guess at the going price and these coins often are so good but as a dealer break my heart as you need two people really interested and there is not a big collectors base. The ball park range for it is $30 to $50 I imagine. But as it is a good example if two people want it the coin could go for $100. I'd be happy at $30 and not sure I could get out of the coin well at $50. Just my opinion... anyway here is the coin below.

Both coins appear genuine. The first is a Roman Republican as of L. Saufeius. Sear priced it at $96 in Fine 21 years ago. Despite the cut on lower obverse, it's still an attractive coin and you won't go far wrong at $50-75.

The second coin is from Arsaos in Iberia. Coins of this variety, larger size with the city name below the exergual line, seem to be rather scarce. The example below, ex-Huntington, brought nearly $500 (including buyer's fee) in 2016:

A rather unattractive piece on VCoins is priced at $280:

Realistically, if you can get the coin for $150, you've done well. At less than $100, it's a steal.

I got the message in the morning via txt on my cel from the lady who works there that they wanted 400 peruvian sols , aprox 100$ each , I kinda know these arent popular where I live , so ive lowballed offered 30 and 40 each , ill go back tommorow early see what the counter offer is and just by the Arsaos , ill try to get it at 60$ which would be great.
Lets see what happens , the other coin , well condition doesn't convince me , thou I must admit I like the art work , but I wont get it at less than 60$ just not worth it. unless the guy accepts 100$ both ill go all in :)
