<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GeorgeM, post: 1948684, member: 28550&quot;]I started by sorting them by size &amp; trying to pair up a few that look like the same denomination.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s the first I&#039;m taking a stab at (#8) - it&#039;s a 15mm coin, and looks like a 1 para from Osman III. However, the last numeral of the date looks like a 3 (kind of a backwards 7 with 2 humps). Since those were only minted in 1168, would the 3 be a reign year or am I totally off base here?</p><p><a href="http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces57405.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces57405.html" rel="nofollow">http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces57405.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Arabic numbers guide:</p><p><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-O2vZo5CMDZE/T1upyl-dvoI/AAAAAAAAAGA/-IjIFW3c-uo/s1600/arabic-numbers.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-O2vZo5CMDZE/T1upyl-dvoI/AAAAAAAAAGA/-IjIFW3c-uo/s1600/arabic-numbers.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-O2vZo5CMDZE/T1upyl-dvoI/AAAAAAAAAGA/-IjIFW3c-uo/s1600/arabic-numbers.jpg</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
