A true test would be to put back in the pan with alittle water and put your finger on it and drag it across the pan. If it leaves a streak in the pan or if it tumbles or flutters in the pan most likely its not gold. Or like ken said if it breaks apart it not gold. The one in the middle to me looks like mica but a picture is really hard to tell.
going by the picture and zooming in the best I could, it looks like gold to me, do the shade test on it, and use a magnifying glass will help you a lot, carefully pinch it between your fingernails MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T GO FLYING do it over your pan if it breaks into little pieces it is not gold. Gold will dent and bend but will not break into little pieces, gold will break if thin enough but in most cases will just bend
