Received some coins when my father passed away. Trying to identify them. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Top one looks to be a religious token, not a coin. Next is an Egyptian 5/10 Qirsh. You date these with the date on the reverse which shows 1293 of the Islamic calendar. Then you add the number of years on the front of the coin. Which is 13. That's how many years that coins design has been used. So this coin was made in 1306 Islamic date. Which translates to 1889 in the western or Gregorian calendar. It's old and cool looking but in that shape, it's not very valuable.

The last two are both Cash coins from China. There are a large number of different styles of these. I can't keep them all straight. But I post a link if you want to research them. They are also still made by Chinese companies for tourists. So whether yours are real and old is very hard to tell.

Lancek Thank you for the information. These are the only ones I couldn't identify. I have other US coins, just not sure of or if there is any value to them.

The top one is a Jewish medal featuring the "live long and prosper" hand sign made famous on Star Trek. This article explains the tie in... http://www.todayifoundout.com/index...jewish-sign/
