    Howdy! I'm new here, just inherited my Aunt's world coins. She traveled all over the world and was gooda bout keeping the coins together and labeled, but after identifying 20+ unlabeled pieces, I've got 4 left I'm stuck on...

    A couple I think are from Egypt or Syria...

    The above coin is slightly larger than a US Quarter [I can't find a ruler with metrics on it!] and very slightly thinner than a quarter. I has ridges along the edges of the coin. It is also the largest of the ones I have left.

    The next coin has the exact same bird design, the exact same wording on the other side, except instead of the line and diamond shape, it has an egg shape with a hollow portion [I could have sworn I uploaded the photo this morning!]... It is slight smaller than the coin above, but still larger than a quarter and the same thickness and edge as the one above [different denomination?]

    Thank you so much in advance for any help you can provide!!!
