Thanks JKK! Thanks for your detailed and thoughtful insights on coin #2 and the identification of coin#3! I purchased these coins and a few others a couple of years ago at a coin shop. I managed to identify the other coins (mostly common Roman coins and Russian wire money), but had no luck identifying these. I didn't think these would be particularly valuable, but It's fun to try to identify them and learn their history. I appreciate your help and effort.

Thanks Just Bob! Wow! I checked out the links and browsed some similar listings on Numista. Based on the dotted circles surrounding the main devices on the obv and rev, I think my coin is a very similar issue of Alfonso X from 1269-1277. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/index.php?r=alfonso+x+dinero+prieto&ct=coin&tb=y&tc=y&tn=y&tp=y&tt=y&cat=y&ru=&ca=3&no=&v=&d=&i=&a=&dg=&m=&f=&t=&w=&u=&g=&se=

Can anyone help me identify these world coins? Any information on them is welcome. I labeled obverses and reverses in the pictures for easier reference, but I don't know which side is which. These are my best guesses: 1. Medieval/Crusader silver/billon denier (Castle on obverse. Not sure what’s on reverse) 2. Copper Islamic coin 3. Copper Indian/Mughal coin 4. Copper coin 5. Thick copper coin Thanks, Thomas
