Hello,

Like the title says I would like help with identification and authenticity. Some have been identified but I don't know if they are real.

Coin #2: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces5528.html


Coin #3: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces11023.html
or  https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces15913.html
 Not sure which one


Coin #4: I was told it is Italy (Venice) Scoldi 1752


Coin #5:


Thanks in advance.
Regards

I am glad to hear it is real. Right now it is now for sale as it has only been in my collection for 4 days. What do you think it is worth. Before I tell you what I paid.

Bhutan coin is not particularly scarce, and they are often in this rather good state of preservation. I do not consider myself a specialist in coins of this country, but would still opt for it being authentic.

Could you post higher definition pictures of the Venice coin, as well as its weight and size? Could you read 4 digits below the sitting Doge?

Hello,

Well I paid more than that. I paid $16.
I thought it was a OK price because NGC value for a VF copy is $16.

Hello

Coin#5 is ancient Roman, and I believe is the 'dragging captive' coin.
Try going to wildwinds.com and do a word search  of dragging captive, and it will list all the emperors who issued this coin.

I think you overspent.

The most I've spent for a 20c from Guangdong was 9-10 bucks, and it was a rarer type.

Could #4 be a Justinian Follis??
It's nice to collect. Would it still be nice when you collected them all?
