Ancient Coin Collectors: I Need Your Help!!!!!

I picked these up the other day from a friend and amongst the pile of foriegn coins there were these three. I have looked all over for them but am starting to believe they are not from the Persian Empire. I am hoping one of you much more knowledgable in this field of expertise could guide a strictly US coin guy in the right direction. Thank you in advance for all responses. It is greatly appreciated.

miss

sorry can not help you

 

Check 18th-19th century AD Afghanistan

 

No luck there. Who knows where these bad puppies came from?????

 

Failing that, the next place to check is Iran during the same time period. Which reference were you using?

 

THe world wide web. I don't have a book. I usually never buy or sell foreign coins but I was buying out an entire collection and these were included. Some I were familar with but these I have had no luck with. Mainly I just wanted the 40 Slabbed morgans

 

Well no wonder you couldn't find anything! If you don't have any books, try sifting through here: http://zeno.ru/

The particular pages you'll need:

Thank you! I really don't have a market for this kind of stuff other than eBay. I do need to pick up a book and further my knowledge of this field. I appreciate your help.

 

Do you think any of these are those on those particular pages?

 

Definitely. Start with Afghanistan.

 

They look close but I dunno??

 

Thanks for the tips. Hunting down on eBay I found this one. Exact match!

Only two more to go! They are selling for $27.50 not bad for my $6 gamble.
