I found these two coins that believe are from Tibet. Really love the designs, but there's so many variants of nearly identical Tibet coins in the SCOWC that I'm having trouble figuring out which these are. Anybody experienced with these type of coins happen to know? Thank you!

Hi, Not sure if this will help at all - I'm new here but I have one that is VERY similar to the one on the left. Mine is Tibet Y#21A (1922-1928). Maybe it's a variation? I also have the one on the right (same one) but I'm still looking for it LOL. I hope someone who knows more will be able to help us both out!

I don't have any information on either of them. Just wanted to comment on how cool they both are. Once they are identified I may be adding one or both of those to my collection. Very nice.

As far as I could figure out from Numista...

Right: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces19094.html

I'm not entirely sure of either, however.

The left coin is actually this one. The centre design in the last picture is the main difference between the two types. The date written on yours is 16 - 2, meaning it was made around 1928 in the Gregorian calendar (and if you would like to be even more specific, yours is without dots in the arabesques).

As for the second one, the link in the above post does look correct. I am not exactly sure how to tell the years apart on that type though.
