  1. From Italy https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=528527
  2. Medal, Freiburg (Germany) 1904
  3. You didn't say Roman 😁 https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces302096.html
  4. Arpi > IЄPOKAICAPЄΩN Lydia, IЄPOKAICAPЄΩN First half of the second century Obv.: ΙΕΡΑ ϹΥΝΚΛΗΤΟϹ, draped bust of Senate, r.

  5. Two new Faustina II denarii, both with Concordia seated, both with all around legend, but long and short legend. Faustina II AR-Denar, Rome Obv.: FAVSTINA AVG PII AVG FIL, draped bust right (unbroken legend) Rev.: CONCORDIA, Concordia seated left holding flower, resting elbow on cornucopia, which is by her chair; under chair globe.

Ag, 16,5 x 19,5 mm, 3.4g Ref.: RIC III 502a6 (long legend variation) var., CRE 169 var
  6. Verus was my first thought too, but Aurelius is also possible. The Tium portraits of Aurelius are very variable and some look like Lucius Verus., e.g.: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=7680052 Unfortunately, the only suitable example for Aurelius (RPC IV.1, 9534) is too big and too heavy.
  7. Another similar example. Here the object looks like a branch (or the half of a lightning bolt) ????? https://www.biddr.com/auctions/nbsauctions/browse?a=3985&l=4686819 Probably two slightly different depictions of the same object
  8. Nice erite up. I have only one Faustina from Abila. Faustina II Arabia, Decapolis, Abila Circa AD 147-175 Obv.: ΦΑΥСΤƐΙΝΑ СƐΒΑСΤΗ, draped bust of Faustina right Rev.: СƐΛƐΥΚ ΑΒΙΛΑ ϚΚС, bunch of grapes AE, 3.41g, 16mm Ref.: RPC IV, № 6509 (temporary), reverse die match with 6509-1, Spijkerman 6 (obverse and reverse die match), Sofaer 8
  9. First one looks like Olba: https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/1/3727 second coin from Laodicea (Zeus reverse) the third coin is from Kyme: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=11337992
  10. Link: Trier Theodora AE follis, Trier Mint Obv.: FL MAX THEODORA AVG, mantled bust right Rev.: PIETAS ROMANA, Pietas standing facing, holding child in her arms; TRP in exergue AE, 1.50g, 16mm Ref.: RIC VIII, Trier 65

Rev: Α[Δ]ΡΙΑΝωΝ ΜΟΨЄΑΤωΝ / ЄT - AΛC Male figure standing left (Mopsos in the guise of Apollo?), wearing toga, holding laurel wreath AE, 29 mm, 17.60g, 1 h Ref.: RPC online IV.3 10293. SNG Levante 133. SNG Paris 1978.
  13. The legend is hard to read. ..IYΣ at the end ??? In this case it could be Sillyon. Maybe you can make out more letters?? https://ikmk.smb.museum/object?id=18288287
  14. One note. Often the distilled water is not distilled but deionized, which means that the metal ions are replaced by H+. In this case the "deionized" water is slightly acidic. So take care that your water is distilled and not deionized.
  15. Mandschukuo "Emperor": 大同, Da Tong (Pu Yi) Year: 3 (1934) Av: 大满洲国 flag of Mandschukuo 大同三年 Rv: 五釐, 5 Li, Flowers AE, 21mm, 3.5g KM Y#1 Next: flag
