A couple of Romans to ID

[SpineyDave]

Hi, A friend has asked to borrow some of my coins for his daughter to take to school for her project.
He was quite keen on Roman and hammered so after sorting some out I realised I never did ID these
Romans and he's just going to ask me who they are when I pass them over tomorrow.

Can anyone have a stab at IDing these please, so I don't look quite such a donkey in the morning

Thanks,
Dave

The one on the right is, Otho Jan 15th till April 16th. 69AD.Not a common find.

Thanks Reiver,  that was a short reign. They did like to bump them off around that time, 4 in one year by the looks of it.

Otho, that a first for me, but then again I've only got three silver Romans in total.

Thanks

A lot of the early denarii are associated with miltary sites and movements (just like now I suppose) - given that the area was being conquered in the 60s and 70s then I think that's why a lot of these scarcer denarii seem to turn up.
