    Just a while ago my brother gave me his foreign coins and I have identified most of them from like 10 countries from China to new guinea to *Guatemala*, but these I need help with. I apologise if one might be upside-down.
    Alright I found out how to add pictures


    Update, I would just like to know what the "coin" on the left is now

    Guantanamo?.. That would be from Cuba.

    Can we see the pictures of the Guantanamo coin

    The one on the left is not a coin. The top right is from Thailand and the bottom right is from Japan,

    Ok Thanks, but about the one on the left, do you think it might be some kind of charm from China? If so I would very much like to know what it is.

    Honestly, it looks like some piece of junk thing that was on a necklace perhaps.

    No, I very much highly doubt that... Theese were originally from my uncles and other people and they wouldn't do that...

    It's still wrong.. I think you mean Guatemala. It's a Central America country ;)

    To me it looks like it's in a Jewelry Bezel... Not a normal minted coin for circulation.

    Here is the proper orientation for that token/jewelry piece. That being said, I don't know what the characters are. My Chinese is rusty at best but these aren't familiar to me.

    Yah just a token. Looks similar to US Subway Tokens from the 70s-80s.

    The Japanese coin is a 1 sen I believe and the Thai coin is a 1 baht I think.

    The character on the "coin" on the right means happy or lucky.

    You guys are right on all of them, 1 baht looks like year 2550 = 2007, the Japan coin (whatever it is), and the Chinese character "fou" for lucky or prosperous.

    The coin from Japan is 1 sen and was minted in 1941.
