Looking 4 Coin Information!

Description:

I am trying to find out what kind of coins these are or where I can get more information on these coins and what they might be worth if anything. I believe they came from the middle east, brought back from Iraq and I believe they are all gold.

As far as I know it is gold. To make a long story short I believe it was brought back from Iraq by a soldier. In a round about way I got a hold of 1 of the coins.

Better focused pictures might allow someone to read/translate what's written on the coin.

I just updated the pictures and added pictures of additional coins.

From what we have gathered it seems the coins are unfortunately copy's of Bactrian gold coins. I was told they are in the wrong metal for these issues and they are cast rather than struck. Whether this information is good or not I don't know and we will continue to search for more information :).
