tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7955 Posts	Posted 01/08/2020 07:29 am The writing on the first three is Arabic. #1 Probably Turkey. Edit: Egypt 5/10 quirsh, 1293 + 29 AH = 1903 https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces4820.html #2 is Iran 1 rial.

january1may Pillar of the Community Russian Federation 5174 Posts	Posted 01/08/2020 1:17 pm 7 is Japan, 5 yen, from a few years after WW2. IIRC this should be Showa 24 (so 1951 AD, apparently), but I'm not very confident in the 4 (or the conversion). [EDIT: Showa 24 is correct, 1951 is not. It's 1949: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces5940.html] 6 is Israel, 10 pruta, [5]712 AM = 1952 AD. Neat coin! [EDIT: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces2043.html] 5 is Taiwanese, I think. Don't recognize the specific type. [EDIT: nope, best Numista match is Republic of China, year 30 = 1941 AD: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces6230.html Really don't like the color, though.] I think @tdziemia got 1-4 essentially correctly.
