  • Hi :)

    So the first coin is definitely not Roman - but I am not certain what it is, as it’s not my specialty. I think it’s an indian coin from the Mughal empire. Weight and diameter, both to .1 digits, would make it easier to get closer. That would technically make it a modern coin, although it is of course still quite old. Think 15-th 16th century. But similar coins were also struck up until the 19th century.

    The second coin is in a little bit too bad of a shape for me to really recognize. I think it’s unlikely that it’s Roman, but if it is I’d guess the byzantine empire from around the 6th century, as it looks vaguely like the crude coins struck by the caliphate after they conquered the levant from the Byzantines.
