Any Idea?

Strange mix, perhaps a silver x gold? The silvers have the red eyes like yours do, and the stripes. But the stripes are more black, and the nose on these angels resemble an altum angels, but perhaps peruvian altum? The yellow stripes are quite strange.
The stripes are probably faded, I have a silver and when he is stressed his stripes fade from solid black to a yellow/grey color. I imagine if these are new to the tank that they are stressed.
I want to say Wild Peru Altums aka P.scalare. But I could be wrong. Maybe someone with a little more expertise in angels can help ya. They are really nice angels you got there though!
I'd lean towards Marks guess.
definitely not Altum.
and from what I know of Peruvian Altum(aka p. scalare) the peruvians have characteristics similar to altums(barring is slightly different but they have the high body and mouth similar to the Altum).
but possible faded wild P.Scalare strain. keep in mind too that even within the wild Peru strain there are slight differences
definitely not Altum.

I had an angelfish that was sold to be as a "Blue Zebra" which looked just like that when faded, but normally it had very bold black bars. Very nice looking fish!
