Working on a puzzle contest and stuck on a few coins. I've uploaded 3 images here. They are all zoomed in to show only a portion of the coins. One looks like a bunch of ben facing head to back, another looks like it has a Menorah in it but doesn't appear to be Israeli. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Hello and

The first coin is a bi-metallic French 10-franc issued between 1988 and 2001:

The second coin looks to me like an Israeli 1 New Shequel issued since 1985:

The third one might be the Dominican Republic 25¢, showing the Mirabel Sisters whose rape and murder led to the overthrow of the Trujillo regime.

I think that is more likely than either the Belgian "Three Kings" coin of 1930 :

or the "Four Kings" of 1948—51 :

although both of those do face the correct way.
