I've got a small group of (Possibly French?) Hammered coins I could do with some info on. Any help appreciated! Thanks

Photo 3 and 4 (oops! edit: photos 5 & 6) are a gros of Lorraine, Duke Rene I think. I will get back shortly with specifics.

Photos 5 and 6 (edit: 7 and 8) Henry III of France dated 1588, and 9 and 10 Louis XII?

OK. Photos 5 and 6 are Lorraine, Rene I (1431-53) Gros. Obv legend RENATI DUX BARREN Z LOT M. Rev legend SIT NOMEN DOMINI BNDI (as best I can tell). Variant of deSaulcy X.13. This one currently up for auction at Jean Elsen is similar

That's a start ... the real experts can come along and correct some of these I suspect, for mint, etc. But they look close.

Very nice work @tdziemia--it can be hard to keep track of thng with so many coins in the post. The only thing that I would add is that the denier with the holy sepulchre on one side and the cross with annulets in two diagonal quarters is most likely mid to late 12th Century Crusader States as I see part of IERVSALEM on the inscription.

Thank you so much for your detailed information on these tdziemia. I am shamefully bad at hammered, and have quite a few lying around in the back of stock drawers I'm slowly trying to sort through.

Quite a nice batch of coins! That Lorraine gros is more attractive than most you'll see at auction.
You'll find an eager bunch out here waiting to help you ID the others.
