Ok Hondo. These dates were all easy. Either a "52" or "65". Seemed to be no other choice. These are the Lybian coins. Also multiples of all of these. Not sure when/how he got the "52's". We were there from 62- 66 so the 65 I understand that. But have fun with these. Thanks everyone.

Very nice Libyan coins! Yes, they are all either 1952 or 1965. All of the coins minted by Idris I have those dates. I imagine that the "1952" coins were continuosly minted into the 1960s without a change of date.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Hmmm. You really make me research my stuff more Hondo, thanks for that. Now I have read up a little, the Idris coins have an interesting history and were around even after Gadaffi took over. Funny. He Had to look at idris coins for a while. Unfortunately I have very little memories of my time there as I was 2-6 years old.

And I know the one 50 Lepta needs an acetone bath. It`s terrible. And now I have a question about the 20 Drachmai? It has the appearance to my uninformed eye of a proof. So who can help me figure this coin out? Thanks for looking and all the great responses. Gotta go get the German coins ready.

Well everyone, here they are. The first 3 are singles. I only have one of each. The 1950 50 Pfennigs I have 2 each of the G and J. Only 1 each of the D and F and the 67J is a single also. 1949 is 1 D,F and J. Actually, I didn`t realize there were mint marks untill I got into the 10 Pfennigs. Now that was a nightmare with deleting pictures, retaking and separating the coins and taking more pictures. Whew. So I put up each mint mark per year, but they are all multiple`s .I think. HaHa.
