Hey all. Just inherited these two coins. Pretty darn sure they are silver but don't have a clue of origin. Any assistance would be most appreciated! Twenty

They're definately written in Arabic. I'll guess they're Syrian or Iranian perhaps. I think I've seen that lion on a flag from the middle east. Check out some flags and match it up.

I have collected world silver coins quite a bite. I believe from the look of the coin with the lion with the sword. It is from Iran (Persia) probably before the Shah of Iran reign or maybe a commemorative of the self anointing of the crowning of the Shah of Iran. If you go and Google Arabic numerals you can find a site to help put a date to the coin. Than go to Numismaster.com and you can narrow it down on where the coin hauls from.

Sweet! Thanks for the info!

The third image in your photobucket appears to be a proof condition American silver Eagle, but I'm not positive. Can someone else verify this???

Thanks Ray. That's the one that truly had me stumped. Yeah, I did not get rid of that photo when sending these out. You have to admit, it is a beauty!

I see a similar coin on feebay that looks like it is a 1927. Quickly looking at the arabic I believe mine may be a 1928. Anyone...anyone?

These look close but it's hard to tell without dimensions and better pics.
