They look like modern replicas of old (maybe ancient)coins or tokens, and not very accurate. I don't think that you'll find any reference ... they could have been made last week.

I had these past down to me from my grandfather. After further research I guess they cane as a set , as a gift, in which there were 4 coins in total the other two were larger and higher denomination.They were sold years ago by an aunt. I know they are 24 K gold 1 lira arancia - Repubblica Italiana. The strange thing about these is that they are 1945 and the actual coin which was not made of gold and produced in 1946. I think they are some kind of commemorative coin before production. I think they are one of a kind and not a fake. Who would fake solid gold coins as a complete set?
