Hello,

I need help finding the origin, era, year etc on these coins I have. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi riasatbd, and welcome to WoC !

When asking for help in attribution it is important to add metric data, so diameter and weight of the coin when possible. Makes identification a lot easier for our members usually. Also better to post one coin per thread.

Your second coin is a Jital issued under Khwarezmshah 'Ala al-Din Muhammad (1200-1220 AD). Mint not indicated, possibly from Herat.
The picture with the text in Arabic script of this one is upside down.

I will move your post shortly to the "unidentified" board, there it may attract more attention from members.

1st coin is a half Anna from Jodhpur, early 20th cent.
always willing to trade modern UK coins for modern coins from elsewhere....

Coin collecting has a curious name. It is also called the "Hobby of Kings".

Please open a separate thread for one of these coins, so we can split them. They should be placed on different boards.
