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.

Here are the measurements:

1. Medieval/Crusader silver/billon denier - 0.9g, 20mm, very thin

2. Copper Islamic coin - 3.4g, 18mm x16mm

3. Copper Indian/Mughal coin - 10.1g, 19mm diameter, 4mm thick

4. Copper coin - 4.0g, 20mm

5. Thick copper coin - 8.3g, 17mm x 10mm, 5mm thick

Thanks JKK. I will post the weights and diameters later today, when I can.

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
