Arabic coin indetification [solved]

6 posts • viewed 85 times
Hello guys,

My girlfriend found those coins and we are wondering from which country are they. Currently I dont have the weight or the diameter of the coins. So I could attach only image for now. I would appreciate any assistance in identifying this coins and learning about its background.



Thanks in advance!
Hello and welcome to Numista!

The 3 on the left are Ottoman Empire 10 Para either https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces9415.html or https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces5974.html. For better identification please supply good quality photos of each and both sides. Weight and diameter would be helpful too.

Also welcome to Numista.

The top one of those three is obviously smaller, so that must be a 5 Para 1915 in stead of a 10 Para, and it's the one with "el- Ghazi" to the right of Toughra (the more difficult one, KM# 767, but it's a pity it's damaged):





the little dark one is probably this billon 1 para

another spotting feature on Ottoman coins is the name of the mint "Istambul"
has what looks like roman letters "bb" in middle part.
