these "items" which I suspect being some roman or similar stuff, arrived yesterday as part of other coins.
BIG problem is that I have no idea about it. And the way it looks, it might be hard to identify because of the "crusty" surfaces.
I am also not sure which way these should be lined up , like which is up and down.
Hopefully someone can shed some light on all these.
thank you all for your help.

    R2 is a 4th Century Roman bronze from the family of Constantine or perhaps just a little later.

  • r1a and r1b appears to be a late 2nd century to early 3rd century roman coin with a bust of emperor's wife (by virtue of the bun at the back of the head). As for r4a and r4b I am curious about that because the one pic seems to show two standing figures with one of the figures with outstretched arm towards the other. I have a small byzantine (I think) bronze with a similar (but not exact similar) design motif on one side...I still have not positively identified it from any pic.
  • p.s...r5 a and b: something about it seems to shout out 12th to 14th century seljuk turk fals. Maybe because I think I see a horse with the star. I could be wrong.
