Scroll down to row six for the start of a couple different examples of your left hand coin, there are other examples with the same design on the other pages also. With the coin in hand you should be able to narrow down which one it is.

The right hand coin I'm having problems making out the design on it. I have only found gold coins with a similar design, but none in other metals, but I am still unable to make out the reverse of your coin.

Welcome to TNet:hello:

2 nice Roman coins in pretty good nick.

The smaller one is;

Constantius II AE4. 337-341 AD. CONSTANTIVS P F AVG, laureate, rosette-diademed, draped and cuirassed bust right / GLORIA EXERCITVS, two soldiers holding spears and shields with one standard between them, G on banner. Mintmark PARL.

The larger one is similar to this, but might be Decentius;

Magnentius. AE22. Trier. 350-353 AD. DN MAGNEN-TIVS PF AVG, bare-headed, draped, cuirassed bust right, A behind head / VICTORIAE DD NN AVG ET CAE, two Victories facing one another, holding between them a wreath inscribed VOT-V-MVLT-X, supported on a column. Mintmark TRS. RIC VIII Trier 307; Sear 18818.

Go to: HomePage - coinproject.com Type Roman bronze into the search and go for it. I suspect your coins are from the Constintine era. There are several relatives to Constantine the Great you should check. They have photos to compare with your coins. Good luck.
