Hi all,

I recently bought a lot full of antique oriental coins which also included these. There is no trace of any inscription on these pieces, are they just super worn or is it some form of antique currency?

Weight: 9,85-10,65 grams a piece

Thanks!

I would say currency early from India. Just my opinion.

They're so worn it's difficult to say. However, the Elichpur mint in India produced a lot of irregularly-shaped copper coins, with shapes similar to your pieces. It's possible these might come from there. Here are a few examples, in the right weight range.
