Ok, they're slightly tongue in cheek, but here they are. I got them off of ebay (not looking for antiques), and they were made for a play written in the 1800's about the emperor Nero and his lover Poppea. They're made from pewter, but look pretty close to silver all shined up. I'll use them as 2 of my centurion phalerae...though they're not quite what the emperor faced awards look like, and I don't think the inscription on them is accurate. They're 3.5 inches in diameter.

I'm also not sure how to mount them, since they're not solid pewter, they're stamped it looks like, and filled with some kind of plaster with a wierd backing on them.
