Cool-good to look at. The more I see of these the more I compare to verified authentic examples and learn to spot differences. Buying these imperials coins is a minefield.
Can I ask where you got these?

Here are 3,4 and 5. All far below weight.
The sixth coin is a different (23rd) year
Left is 19.42g, 39.1mm by 2.35mm
Center is 19.68g, 39.1mm by 2.5mm with something not right.
A member will see it quickly and say what it is.
Right is 19.67g, 39mm by 2.4mm

I think these may have come from Hong Kong.
I remember a dealer gave them to me in Chicago calling them "knock-offs".
