Hi,

They look like Ottoman silver Ackes or Paras.  I'm no expert, but it looks like the date might be 826 A.H.  If I am reading the date correctly as Hyderabad Arabic, then it is more likely from India, possibly of the sultans of Sindh.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Patrick

Hi

Top coin is of Murad II (1421-1444) accession date 824. The reverse (upper image) is upside down. I'm afraid I can't read the mint on this one for sure, but it might be Serez?

I don't think the lower one is Ottoman, but I think the style of the script is too modern for it to be from Sindh.

Best wishes

Alan
