This is a mostly un-researched collection of ancient bronze / copper coins.

The first picture shows a massive bronze coin (on the right) of one of the Ptolemaic Kings of Egypt, probably Ptolemy III Euergetes I (246-222 B.C.). Further research would probably describe the coin as follows ...” Obverse: Diademed and horned bust of Ptolemy I Soter as Zeus Ammon right. Reverse: ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΠΤΟΛΕΜΑΙΟΥ, eagle standing left on thunderbolt". The other two coins are a Roman bronze and another Ptolemaic bronze also depicting the bearded bust of Zeus Ammon with a beautiful pair of Eagles on the reverse...

The second picture shows to Roman Provincial Tetradrachmas with Greek inscriptions – probably from the Alexandra Mint.

The following picture shows an unknown Greek coin, a Roman bronze and a Byzantine 12 Nummia. The reverse of the coin portrays a cross between the letters "IB". The Greek letters "IB" represent the denomination of the coin. The "I" stands for 10 and the "B" stands for 2 for a total of 12 nummia The coin probably dates to the 6th century after Christ.
