Thank you,it's year 21! Do u also know the value? is it rare?
what about the rest?

 

The year would have to be 28 or 29, I don't think year 21 exists with that style. It isn't very rare, but in that condition Krause lists it as $5.

Coin #6, based on the weight you give, should be a Turkish 20 kurush (AH 1293, year 3). It is 83% silver. I don't know how the dealer determined that it was copper, but it looks silver to me, and the weight agrees. In that condition might be worth about $20.

Coin #7, based on the relative size with the above, must be a Turkish 20 para, AH 1223, year 25. It is 12% silver, rest copper presumably. Not rare.

 

On the top of the arabic words,there's is a "21" there is not any other number than the date :"1223" You can see it in the photo.It's clear that it is 21.The coin is in better condition than it appears in the photo, the date is readable.But in the photo u can't read the date.
Could u tell me what are the values for the better grades please?

Coin#6 I took the coin to another dealer to test it if it was silver or not. The answer was no. He told me it was Bronze/copper , the weight was 22.5 & he said that there was bronze versions of this coin that he had sold before a lot.I was disappointed, I paid $ 15 for it.I was thinking it was silver :S
Is there any copper ottoman coins of this coin??

Coin#7 thanks for the infos.

Anything about Coin#5?

 

Then it is a coin not listed in Krause, or in another reference I use. This design type, by all accounts, was only used starting year 28.

I cannot find anything about a copper version of this coin. All designs of this type that I can find were for 5, 10, and 20 kurush and in 83% silver.

Coin #5 is meant to be in the style of a gold Austrian 4 ducat, but looks like a cast imitation.
