I picked up these coins at an auction. I am not for sure which specific ones they are or if they have any value. If you can identify please let me know. Thanks!

It helps to only post one or two coins at a time and remove them from the 2x2's this way we can get a better look at the. They are Greek but we need better pictures to say if they are real or not.

I'd have to say, based just on these pics, that I'd assume they were fake. They have a very porous-looking appearance typical of cast fakes. That they all have exactly the same black-contrast toning is also highly suspicious, given that they come from widely separate parts of the ancient world and would not normally be found together.

Yeup - al fakes. They are all the same, all round, all porous and many fakes look this way - its supposed to look antiqued.
