Hello All.

My friend asked me about identifiaction of this soldiers. But I'm completely layman in metal.

Could you help me ?

The two brown-horsed guys look a lot like the gilt Reka figure, #8, pg 104 of the Rose Toy Soldiers book. It's a smaller-than-1/32 scale figure. I couldn't find anything closer, nor anything like the black-horsed fellow, in Joplin's Great Book of Hollow-cast Figures.

Thank you.

When approx. was made this figures ?

This is stil only a guess at the maker, based on style. Reka was in business from 1908-1932, and then Crescent bought some of the moulds and produced figures. (Info from Joplin's book.)
