Hello all. I recently purchase a large lot of coins and within them were a few asian looking coins, some in silver and some in copper. If anyone can identify any of them I would be most grateful!

Top line. Possibly Persian token followed by two Islamic "Temple Tokens"
First coin, second line: Ramatanka or Hindu "Temple Token"

The middle coin is from the Ottoman Empire, but all of the later Ottoman coins looked identical to one another so we'd need the size and weight to fully identify it.

It is from 1911 - it could be either 5, 10, or 20 kurus, depending on size.
