Hello,
I have 4 coins from India, these are possibly from the Mughal Era as they have Arabic writing on them but I could be wrong! Please help me identify these. Attached are images of the coins labeled as -
C1 & C1(R) - Coin 1
C2 & C2(R) - Coin 2
C3 & C3(R) - Coin 3
C4 & C4(R) - Coin 4.
Thank you!

Please post the weight of each coin to know the denomination.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. They do seem to be more like the Mohur's than the coins, like here -

I will get them weighed and post back. Do I take these to a regular jeweler to check their gold content?

Yes you can take them to a jeweler. I know they colored a lot of silver coins in gold color too. Just ask the jeweler not to damage the coin in any way (just in case).
And please do let us know the outcome. 4 gold mohurs sounds really good

I got them checked today and they are all gold
Approx 11g each. Any ideas where can I sell them and what value can I expect to get?

Congrats Buddy! I would say get them graded and then sell them. You can contact auction houses like Maru Auctions to sell your coins.
