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.
