Went to a couple of yard sales today just to see what we could find. Never intending to find coins...maybe some old hot wheels etc. Found a box with a bunch of costume jewelry, broken watches, earrings etc. noticed the coins in the bottom. Took them up to the nice lady...paid my $5.00 and smiled back to the truck :) nothing major in it but definitely worth more than the five bucks...anyone want some junk plastic necklaces?  |

That's a Turkish coin. The star and cresent moon is Turkey's symbol on their flag.
I think that's a 1 kurus. Not sure of the rate of exchange.

Pakistani 1 pice, I believe, without checking Krause. Turkey has not used Arabic script since the early 1900's.
