Ancient Greek coins: any assistance on the attribution would be appreciated ... thanks!

Hello,

Here are three cool old ancient greek coins and honestly, if anyone can assistance on the attribution I would really appreciate it ... thanks!

All are about the size of a nickel but much thicker.

    Those look like the bronzes of Phillip (can't remember if its Phillip II or III or whatever) of Macedonia. He would have been Alexander
    The Great's father, and I believe these bronzes date about 359-330 BC.

    Hi,

    Firstly, thanks for the reply.

    I have a Philip the II coin, Alexander III's father however; it is very different than the three I listed above. The obverse and reverse are different portraits and different youth on horseback images.

    Below is my Philip the II coin.

    Could the three above be different versions? Or perhaps different kings?

    Thanks,
    Anthony
