Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 08/25/2015 7:48 pm Most of these coins should be identifiable. Please post them individually, with both obverses and reverses shown, as well as sizes and weights if available, in the Ancients section. Fyi, the second to last appears a siglos from the Achaemenid Empire of ancient Persia, 5th - 4th century BC. Can't pin it down further without seeing good pics of both sides.

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 08/25/2015 8:13 pm You have a number of Ancient and Medieval coins mixed in with some modern ones. It's best to post one or two coins at a time especially the Ancient and Medieval ones so that we can ID them properly. Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 08/26/2015 07:32 am The Islamic silver coins in your second photo are midieval Umayyad and there may be one or two Abbasid there also, but need better pictures to say which is which. Even though there are some modern coins there most are ancient or medieval so I'm moving the thread over to the Ancient/Medieval coin section. I sure some of the coins can be identified there.
