the coin by itself is from the United Kingdom, 25 pence I think.

The grid: I zoomed in as much as the program would allow, but my eyes seem to need recalibration, sorry ...

and welcome to the forum.

Let's see what we've got there. All of them are "cheap" (less than a dollar) as far as I can tell, but it's a nice "starter" world coin collection.

Row 1 Coin 1: not sure, but I think it's Egyptian; would need to see the other side.

R1 C2: Pakistan; the square one is a 5 paisa, I believe; reverse should have a sailing ship with a number "5" superimposed on the sail.

R1 C3: Ceylon (Sri Lanka) 2 cents 1971.

R1 C4: Pakistan 10 paisa.

R1 C5: China (Taiwan) 10 cents 1955.

R1 C6: Yugoslavia. 'Fraid I can't tell more than that without the other side.

R2 C1: Pakistan again; the small 8-point scallop should be a 2 paisa.

R2 C2: the lion-and-sun symbol is of pre-Revolutionary Iran, but I'm having difficulty matching it to a specific coin; need other side.

R2 C3: China (Taiwan) 50 cents.

R2 C4: Yugoslavia 1 dinar 1953.

R2 C5: Finland 1 penni 1970.

R2 C6: Norway 25 ore.

R3 C1: Algeria 5 centimes 1970. The coin commemorates the beginning of a "Four Year Plan", hence the double-date.

R3 C2: United Arab Republic, but I can't tell whether it was struck by the Syrian or Egyptian half of the federation. I think it's an Egyptian 2 milliemes 1960, but I'd need to see the other side to confirm, which if I'm right should look like R6C5.

R3 C3: Japan 1 yen, Year 46 of emperor Hirohito (= 1971 AD).

R3 C4: Israel 5 agorah, Year 5721 Jewish Calendar (= 1961 AD).

R3 C5: much the same as R2C5.

R3 C6: Algeria 1 centime 1964.

R4 C1: See R3C5 and R2C5.

R4 C2: Bhutan 1 pice, undated but known to have been struck in the period 1951-1955.

R4 C3: Iran, 1 rial dated 1351 Iranian Solar calendar (= 1972 AD).

R4 C4: Nepal 10 paisa, dated 2024 Vikramasamvat calendar (= 1971 AD).

R4 C5: see R4C1, R3C5 and R2C5.

R4 C6: Ceylon (Sri Lanka) 1 cent 1963.

R5 C1: Pakistan; this rim is only to be found on the 2 paisa, I believe.

R5 C2: Saudi Arabia, I think it's the 1 ghirsh 1957/8, but I'd want to see the other side to confirm.

R5 C3: Pakistan 5 paisa.

R5 C4: Something flat. Anything on the other side?

R5 C5: Algeria 2 centimes 1964, a partner for R3C6.

R5 C6: see R4C5, R4C1, R3C5 and R2C5.

R6 C1: Saudi Arabia, a later design than R5C2; probably a 10 halala from the 1970's.

R6 C2: Iraq 5 fils 1975.

R6 C3: Greece 50 lepta 1970.

R6 C4: Japan 50 yen, Hirohito year 31 (= 1956 AD).

R6 C5: Egypt 1 millieme 1960. Presumably a counterpart for R3C2.

R6 C6: see R5C6, R4C5, R4C1, R3C5 and R2C5.

R7 C1: Nepal 2 paisa. Need to see other side for date.

R7 C2: Syria 5 piastres 1971.

R7 C3: Ethiopia 1 cent, struck with frozen EE1936 date between 1944 and 1975.

R7 C4: Jordan; probably the 5 fils, but it would say in English on the other side what the denomination was.

R7 C5: see R6C6, R5C6, R4C5, R4C1, R3C5 and R2C5.

R8 C1: Guernsey 1/2 new penny 1971.

R8 C2: Morocco 5 santimat 1974.

R8 C3: Sudan 5 millim 1972.

R8 C4: Algeria 5 centimes 1974. This was the next Four Year Plan (see comment on R3C1).

R8 C5: Pakistan 1 paisa 1974.

R9 C1: another Pakistan 1 paisa, older than R8C5; date is on other side.

R9 C2: Saudi Arabia 1 halala, Year 1383 Islamic calendar I believe (= 1963 AD).

R9 C3: Saudi Arabia 50 halala Year 1397 (= 1976 AD).

R9 C4: China (Taiwan) 10 cents, circa 1970's, date on other side.

R9 C5: see R7C5, R6C6, R5C6, R4C5, R4C1, R3C5 and R2C5. You did realise these were all the same type of coin, I hope?

Coin22, the "first one" and "second one" are one and the same item: a British 25 pence (crown) coin. Click on the link in bubby's second post to see a closeup of the third pic.
