    Looks like they are "reproductions" of a coin cast from a mold of an original.

    All have that same blob at 10 o'clock, good indicator of copies.

    I would not call them copies,they don't represent any coin I know of.
    Fantasy coin would be a better description.

    I'll add that the way the loop is attached to the top is meant to suggest ancient metal work, except they did it better back then. These are sort of a revival of Etruscan Revival in style.

    Looks like PMC3 precious Metal Clay perhaps...they look as if the were molded and hand bailed. If they were done with PMC3 they are 99.9% silver.
