I am waiting on a ebay world coin lot to arrive in the mail and I've identified most of the coins in the low res picture, but there are a few I could use some help on. Anyone know the coins in red?

Bottom left is Austria.

Second row, far right is Abbasid, I think. Try 1 dirham, maybe in the 1100-1300 AD range. This might be your most valuable coin in the lot.

You're right on the Austria. Looks to be a 1965 Austria 5 Schilling.

The center-top coin is 50 Qirush, Egypt (silver .800) commemorating president Nasser.
The center-bottom coin is 5 Mark, West Germany 1973 (silver .625) commemorating Frankfurter Nationalversammlung

I'm still searching for the exact Egypt? coin from top left, and good call Finn235 on the dirham. Won't be able to peg that one until it's in hand.

A good reference site to try and find these is numista.com it has a ton of info and a pretty easy search for it too.

Found it on numista! 1987 Egypt 5 Pounds. Thanks for the help everyone! I'll post the rest of the info when they come in the mail. Could be a couple more interesting ones.
