Stupid monkey you??? I didn't even know that Russians had icons!!! I thought they were all Devil worshipers!!!..... JUST KIDDING!!!
Seriously, now, could one of them be Saint Peter? I think he's a Russian saint, no??? Well,..... it's a nice piece.
sorry....... I was just being stupid. Didn't mean to offend any one.
never mind... actually not the russian, we the germans are all evil

Pic 1- (Mi)chael, St. Evdokiya, can't read the name of the third one.
pic 2- Saint Apostle Peter, Saint Kuzma (?), Saint Apostle Michael, ... Evdokiya, and the same one i can't read. The image on the top is that of the God/Jesus Christ (it says "God All Mighty")
Pic 3- Saint Apostle Michael
Pic 4- God All Mighty
Sorry, i could do better but i'm in a rush now. Will do more research and will post what i dig out.
They sure look old and if they are real, you hit a jack pot big time, but i heard there are A LOT of very skillful reproductions of Russian icons and your best bet in identifying whether they are authentic is showing them to an expert.
Im gonna say 18th....
