Damien,

To elaborate just a bit on Pekka K's comment: if your coins are from the reigns of Claudius Gothicus, Quintillus, Aurelian, Tacitus, Florianus, or Zenobia and Vabalathus (the latter two minted in Antioch) then they probably fall under the MERRIC program. Basically put, this program undertakes to revise the Roman Imperial Coinage, volume 5, part 1. The MERRIC sitemap can be found here: http://www.ric.mom.fr/en/info/mapsit and a very brief introduction to the project can be found here: http://www.ric.mom.fr/en/info/present.
