I would like to introduce you all to my very first Gold coins! 
I am enjoying them very much!
It took some time to figure out where they were from. But I think I have it figured out. on the left is the 1 toman either 1319 or 1321 (help would be appreciated) on the right is the 5000 dinars (1/2 toman) with a date of 1324. Both gold I believe. I think the 1/2 toman was cleaned. any thoughts on the value of each coin?
Sorry About the bad pictures

ImKing 304, obviously a cleaned coin is worth less (20-30%) than the prices listed above but IMO the list prices above are low based upon the current prices realized on the street. The low quality of the photos make it hard to distingush any type of grade or harshness of cleaning.
