I recenly purchased some ancient coins from a yard sale. They were labled at from the Moghul dynasty, but I'm not sure. I also would like to know the denomination of each coin.
1st side:
Some-Ancient-Coins-I-Need-Help-Identifing-|-Indian-Coppers

2nd side:
Some-Ancient-Coins-I-Need-Help-Identifing-|-Indian-Coppers

Note: These aren't obverse and reverse. I can't tell the difference between the two, so I took a picture of one side then flipped it over.


Thanks for any and all help.

First coin on the second row is "Chatrapati Sivaji" coin of the Maratha confederacy,India.
Second coin of the same row is of Ahmadnagar, Indian state.
Second one of the last row was issued by Shamsuddin Muhammad shah-III,the Bahmani ruler.(1463-1482)
Middle coin on the top row looks to be of Aurangazeb the Mughal from Surat mint.

Sorry for bumping this old thread, but any idea on how much they're worth? I got them all for $50, did I do good?

It's a bit high for unidentified and (in some cases perhaps unidentifiable) coins, but fully identified, you could probably expect to pay $10 each for them here in the West (they're probably cheaper in India), so yes, $50 for the lot isn't too unreasonable a price in my opinion.

And no worries about bumping it, either. It gives me the opportunity to move it to where it belongs.
