I'm not sure about these. It's been almost 40 years since I was in that part of the world. Just to get started, I'd say the set is a souvenir from the castle park. Perhaps gold or gold tone plating on base metal, but I really do not know if they may have been made in precious metal or not. Perhaps this post may prompt someone that has been there more recently and visited the gift shop.

They are some token that commemorates the Shuri Castle in Okinawa.

Thank you for the info gxseries. So they are tokens and not actual coins.
