    They look real to me. RIC stands for Roman Imperial Coinage, the go to text for old Roman coins. The previous owner did the work and ID'ed them. I think the descriptions are accurate, (but I have not verified this myself). I agree with tcollects comment above that they probably worth about $20 each. You search the eBay sold listings and see what similar coins have sold for.

    Rec78- thank you I did not know what RIC meant.
    I also posted on the world coin & ancient coin forum, which I received good input.
