we need pictures of both sides of the coin, and please group images from the coin together. The first coin is Tunisia km235 5 Centimes (AH1325-1336)
Hint - each picture needs a unique name, otherwise the last one that you upload is only what we see

If you have a public library close by keldaw then it is likely that you will be able to hire a copy of Krause world catalog. They are very helpful for identifying world coins. The downside is most of the prices are way off. If you like it enough you may consider buying one but they arent cheap. I perpetually rent mine from the library.

I can see a south african sixpence, a british india 2 annas and a german 10 pfennig. I dont recognise any of the others without looking them up.

no 1 ,thanks for all the hints and help guys , but I think there is to many all together to worry about, no 2 ,they are not in good condition as you can see ,not worth the trouble I have to go to , no 3 it has taken a lot of my time to get to know how to get a picture on here , clear enough to see it, no 4 , fuzzy317 , sorry mate I have no idea how to group the pictures together , give them a name , or even show a picture with both sides showing in the one frame .. no 5 , just now I am just about fed up with trying to get good pic to put on here so there is no way I could show pictures of the other side of the coins today .. no 6 , there are a lot more to show and I have spent all day on this computer , and my wife  is starting to get angry  with me as I have not done my work around the house yet .. ,, kel ,, |

This last lot are, or were, Egyptian 1/2 milliemes dated 1938 (this coin was only struck in 1938). They are bronze coins; these have been gilt-plated to make them look gold-like. The gilding and the loops of chain make them undesirable as collectable coins, not that undamaged examples are expensive, either. NGC database page. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
