I am not an expert in this, nor have I identified these types of coins before. I'll give it a try though

The second picture has a date, as far as I can see it translates to 1223, and at the top it says 25. I assume it means it is a 1223//25 (see link below). I cannot find a denomination though (but, if it is the same coin in the link below, it would be 20 para).

I'd love to see what the experts in these coins think

Link!

At the weight the OP gives, these coins are actually the 100 para (2½ kurush), KM# 598. NGC page.

There are actually two different types of 100 para that can be found with the tear 1223//25: "Series Eight" and "Series Nine". They look the same, but series Nine coins have a dot below the wreath on both sides (as the illustrated coin does), while the Series Eight coin (KM 590) does not. The Series Nine one is slightly scarcer.

I thought I may have been wrong on the denomination. Thank you for the correction Sap
