Can't help you much, Donald. I can't identify the first 2 at all. The third looks to be from Russia.

I agree with 'digging440 yrs' on the first one:
1902 - Imprints Provisoire 1319 2 - stamp - Iran - Catawiki

Second one (red) is from Bulgaria; date on stamp is 1876 but stamp, itself, may be from 1901; denomination: 10 'stotinki'.

Coin three: [h=1]5 STOTINKA 1892 (SMALL LION) KINGDOM BULGARIA (as shown here)[/h]http://www.delcampe.net/page/item/id,385612965,var,5-STOTINKA-1892-SMALL-LION-KINGDOM-BULGARIA-VERY-GOOD-CLEAR-STAMP-NEUFMINTNEW,language,E.html

#1 - looks like Iran, Scott's # 173 of 1902, but that stamp is supposed to be perforated and your stamp is imperforate. In my estimation this is a forgery done for sale on the stamp collector market.
#2 - Bulgaria # 53, 5s issue of 1901 which has a catalogue value of mint - $1.25, used - .15c, forgeries abound.
#3 - Bulgaria # 78, overprint on 1889 stamp in 1909 which has a catalogue value of mint - $1.00, used - .50c
I'm using a 1999 catalogue, so values may have gone up, but not much, and in real life foreign stamps bring only a fraction of their catalogue values in the US unless they are rare.
