Would greatly appreciate some help in identifying these ancient bronze coins that I acquired recently.  have some ideas for what they all might be, but I'm not 100% certain on these attributions or the exact type of each coin. Also, I apologize if the photos are less than stellar.

 

Coin 1:

Diameter: ~13 mm

Weight: 2.3 g

Current ID hypothesis: Seleucid coin from Tyre, maybe something along the lines of this N#326098

 

Coin 2:

Diameter: 15 mm

Weight: 4.2 g

Current ID hypothesis: Macedonian shield coin, either from the lifetime of Alexander or shortly after (no clue about what type though, especially since I haven't really been able to find any examples online that really match the obverse)

 

Coin 3:

Diameter: ~17 mm

Weight: ~5 g

Current ID hypothesis: Seleucid coin of some sort

 

Coin 4:

Diameter: ~20 mm

Weight: ~7 g

Current ID hypothesis: Either another Macedonian coin (possibly from the reign of Philip V), or some sort of imitation coin made in that style, though I'm quite unsure about either hypothesis

Upon further inspection, I think coin 4 might be something along the lines of this N#367710
