Request-For-Help-To-ID-Two-Coins-|-Saudi-Arabia-And-Thailand

Request-For-Help-To-ID-Two-Coins-|-Saudi-Arabia-And-Thailand
Hello,

Can someone please assist me to identify these two coins?

I need the following for both coins:

country,
year,
translation of verbiage on the coin,
unit of type of money,
total weight and/or % of gold (and karat) or silver if applicable

I have exhausted my resources and have come up empty.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

First coin is from Saudi Arabia and is a 50 Halala (1/2 Riyal) KM# 64 dated AH1408 (1987). The second coin is from Thailand.

The coin from Thailand is 5 satang Y#72a in aluminum-bronze. Year is BE2493, which corresponds with 1950AD.

translation of verbiage on the coin...

Here's the translation of the text on the Saudi coin:

Request-For-Help-To-ID-Two-Coins-|-Saudi-Arabia-And-Thailand

Note that Arabic is read "backwards" (right to left) so the obverse actually reads "King Fahd bin Abdul-aziz al-Saud, Servant of the Two Holy Places". The "two holy places" in question are the mosques in Mecca and Medina.

Here's the Thai coin:

King Rama IX Phumiphon Adunyadet is the current king of Thailand.
