You have several different coins here, and show what appears to be different reverses (backs) with correct obverses (front).

Need to post just one coin at a time, front and back. Or we probably can't help much.

Multiple coins? Again, post 1 pic or front and 1 pic of back. TNet will allow you to add photos later if you need them.

We are not allowed to suggest "fake". However, the coin may be a copy of an actual coin. For example, some 3-inch diameter discs that look like actual coins are not true coins. They may instead be copies, souvenier pieces, or just large collectible tokens.

A coin which is not the correct diameter, may be a token instead.

I hope this is what you are asking for. But I may be mistaken.
 
That 1803 isn't gold. It's a gold coin design. You decide for yourself if it's real....

I disagree, if you have knowledge of a coin and the OP is asking your thoughts, than by all means share what you know.

This is the closest coin I could find from 1803 that matched yours.
 
The 1803 gold is similar. But look closely at the star size compared with LIBERTY and the date. Something is wrong.
 
what do the letters to the right of "3" say?
