Thirty-four-year-old Robert C. Doyle and 33-year-old Ronald Beasley Chaney II face a robbery conspiracy charge and two firearms counts.
They were arraigned today.
A three-day jury trial was set for March 21.
A third defendant, 30-year-old Charles D. Halderman Jr., is scheduled for arraignment on two charges Tuesday.
Prosecutors say the men conspired to rob an unnamed silver and coin dealer and use the money to stockpile weapons, buy land and train for a race war.
