I have three of these coins which I cannot identify, all being approximately 12 mm across and being made of very thin hammered silver. The first appears to have a date of 1123 (probably Hijira). The third coin is most likely unidentifiable unless it comes from the same country as the others, there's so little visible.

At 12mm, best guess would be silver akce from the Ottoman empire, 1600s to maybe early 1800s. They are really tough to ID if you can't read the language.

Thanks, I considered Ottoman akce as well, for the first one, I searched both zeno.ru and numista and came up blank for the date (1123). I searched the numista for the second one but couldn't find a match, I will try zeno as it's very comprehensive although it will take a long time to do.
