I apologize, I am taking the easy way out and saving myself probably hours trying to figure out what these coins are and if they have any value. I figure members on this forum could probably answer these two questions in a matter of minutes.

I do not have the coins in hand and these are the only pictures I have.

In summary, based on these pictures can anyone provide information on:
-type/details for each coin
-value

My gut says they are Roman and worth a few dollars each or they are fake. How far off am I?

Thank you in advance?

    They are late Roman coins. I am not sure of just who issued them due to the poor condition. Unless they turn out to be a rare issue, which is doubtful, they will have little value in that condition.

    Top one is Aurelian, I believe, while the second is Constantius II or similar.

    291fifth and sapyx: thank you for your comments. My friend has these coins and I will tell her to keep them for her grandkids for educational purposes.
