    Here are 3 more. #1 is Louis XIIII of France but no date or denomination. #2 Spanish for sure (16th-17th Century my guess) but no date/denomination. #3: Greek ancient (bust is upside down, sorry). I know Roman coins pretty well but am in the dark on the Greek city states. Thanks for any help.

    The first one is a jeton of Louis XIV, listing his titles in Latin on the obverse, and stating "nothing without the council" on the reverse, also in Latin. The date is about 1650. Here is your type: https://www.cgbfr.com/conseil-du-roi-louis-xiv-ttb,fjt_455027,a.html
    Your second coin would be a real of Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain, but it does not appear to be silver, thus it is a counterfeit. The third coin is beyond my abilities to figure out. Someone else with more knowledge will hopefully see it and let you know what it is.
