Can someone help me what is the value?
Iam not really sure about is it gold or not, how can I make sure?
The coin size is 20 mm.

Again, this is a 2 Pistre / 2 Quirsh silver coin that is made to look like gold: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces8864.html

The same is true of all the Egypt coins you have posted.

I hope you didn't pay much for these, and that you can return them, if they are recent purchases.
