HELP TO IDENTIFY

I PURCHASED THESE THREE COINS AS PART OF AN ESTATE I BOUGHT. I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT THEY ARE. I COULD REALLY USE THE KNOWLEDGE OF THIS FORUM. THE COIN PICS ARE FRONT AND BACK OF EACH. THE FIRST ONE WEIGHS 23.7 G, THE SECOND 16.2, AND THE THIRD 10.3. ALSO , SHOULD I SOAK IN ACETATE? THANKS FOR ALL OF YOUR EXPERTISE.

Here, I cross-posted them over on CoinTalk for you, since that site has a bit livelier Ancients forum:

https://www.cointalk.com/threads/id-help-for-a-member-from-another-forum.409667/

Which isn't to say there aren't folks here who might also have the right expertise.

I can tell they're ancient, but that's about all. The condition makes it a bit challenging. I'd say there's a decent chance you'll get the answers you seek, though, either here or on the CoinTalk thread.

There is also NumisForums, which is a more specialized site dedicated mostly to Ancients:

You have some replies over on CoinTalk now (see the link I provided above).

Would these be considered part of a sunken treasure?, so don't know anything about these, just came on so I could start learning

I really appreciate you sending it over. I will check their ideas out when I get home from visiting family tomorrow.

Likely just the usual ground finds, not sea-salvaged.
