You have the obverse and reverse for your coins switched in your two posts!

itsikha - I believe the imperial obverse you have posted is from Gordian III

IMP GORNDIANVS PIVS FELIX AVG
Radiate and cuirassed bust right

In fact a very nice specimen of your obverse can be found as Bust Type 7 of Gordian III in the ERIC. (page 251)

Iacta alea est  - 'The die has been cast' (Julius Caesar Jan 10, 49 BC Rubicon River, Italy)
