    Picked up a bucket of coins today and found these. No idea about them so grateful for any ideas. Sorry for the quality of the photos - still not a strong suit!

    It is a little hard to read the regnal years but they look like:

    Left: Turkey Copper-nickel 40 para AH 1336 Regnal year 4 (AD 1921)
    Right: Turkey Nickel 20 para AH 1327 Regnal year 5 (AD 1913)

    :)
