As an idea, I wonder if the 3rd coin maybe is showing a crab or scorpion?

The knuckles appear to be covered. Perhaps a hand in caestus, the wrappings used by ancient boxers?

Palouche, it's a left hand skeleton, I see it clear at the coin, at the photo the fingers are at the south, if you turn the photo you will see it

The weights are correct, also the seller I got them is selling original coins so I doubt that are fakes, but okey, we never know.

But not fabric For sure, it would also be kinda weird for it to have 6 fingers. Side note: what are the concentric rings on the reverse? Is that a finger print or something else? Edited by Gincoin43

i study that early thinking the same, but is not a finger print, the finger it can't fit in there, the coin is very small and the area there is only 5mm and on top is the lines
i don't have experience on that type of coins so I don't know, could be fake, could be real, I have no idea
