They are indeed all Ptolemaic Egypt, these can be tough if not impossible to identify when they all have Zeus-Ammon on the obverse and an eagle on a thunderbolt on the reverse, or in the case of a shared rule between two monarchs, two eagles, and everyone is named Ptolemy

the divot in the center is perfectly acceptable and normal, we believe they were lathed or pressed instead of hammer struck

the first one has some sort of symbol in front of the eagle so it can be narrowed down if someone knows what that's supposed to be

the other two will be tough with no other visible symbols unless I'm blind

they just say "of King Ptolemy" on the reverse of all 3

I'd like to buy #2 or #3 when someone IDs it correctly, the two eagles are curious

given that #3 Zeus-Ammon appears to be horned and we have two eagles and the coin weighs a ton I'm going to throw a guess out there that it's Ptolemy I while his son Ptolemy II was co-regent 285-283 BCE

Thanks Cory not sure what their fate will be, most likely Ebay auctions but I'd like to properly describe them.

There is a fantastic website for Ptolemy bronzes. In addition to being able to read the Svoronos reference book online, they have pictures of most types/rules and a handy attribution aid.

Just answer the key questions on this attribution guide to narrow down your attribution. PtolemyBronze Attribution Software
