These are some coins I bought from a lot of foreign coins. I have identified the country of origin of all but this handful of coins. I would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Album 1 http://picasaweb.google.com/Coleman...KkRuXfyD2Io# (took the tokens out of this album so 5,6 is 1,2 and 7,8 is 3,4 thanks)

Album 2 http://picasaweb.google.com/Coleman...5Y6Q-4OWlVQ#

The albums are laid out with each coins obv first and then reverse (i.e. (1,2) (5,6)

Thanks again
God Bless,
Brad

From the Album 1, there's a 1 Drachma from Greece, 1973 (5,6). The other having a portrait w/glasses is a Thailand Baht, 1977 (7,8)

Album 2: (17,18) Sweden Öre, 1956. It looks possibly cleaned.
(obverse reads "Gustaf Adolf VI King of Sweden")

Album 1: the first two appear to be tokens of some sort, and not coins. The one labelled "P.E." is impossible to say when and where it's from just by looking at it.

The token with the denomination "N 5 P" is most likely of British origin, from the period 1970 to 1982 - "NP" being short for "new pence".
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
