Here's another coin that I believe is a Juchid Mongol. 15mm and 1g. Can anyone narrow down the attribution?

I'm pretty sure this is a Juchid Mongol coin. It's 16mm and 1.3g. There are many photos and listings on zeno and so far I have had no luck narrowing down an attribution.

Wondering if someone can help me narrow down this attribution. This coin is 18.7mm and 4.43 g. I think there is a date on the reverse with what appears to be a retrograde L followed by an E. I think this is a Greek Imperial coin.

Thanks Spence. There are definitely a few examples on there and the tamgha looks correct for Wanwan just not finding an exact match. The text to the right of the tamgha on m coin looks a little different than any of the online photos I've seen.

I was told that this Chach coin was minted under the ruler Vanvan but I have found very little online information. Specifically, I was given Shagalov-Kuznetsov 22 as a catalog reference. Perhaps someone with the Shagalov, V. D and A. V. Kuznetsov, Catalogue of coins of Chach can help identify. Ideally, I'd like to know the name of the ruler, timeframe, and catalog number. This coin is 20mm and 3.75g. Thanks!

I'm not sure what to make of this coin. The listing in the standard catalog only shows this type of 5 Francs as silver. This one is clearly bronze. It also comes in at 21.83g instead of 25. I'm guessing it's counterfeit. Any thoughts?

This bronze coin is 17.6 mm and 2.92 grams. It was labeled Pontus Pilate Lepton when purchased but I'm having a hard time matching it up to any of the Procurators. Any thoughts?

I think this is probably a cast fake but I'd love a second opinion. It appears to be a Judean Mattathias Antigonus Menorah coin.

Not sure what this coin is. It's bronze, approximately 15mm and 4.6 grams. It looks like some sort of symbol inside of an incuse square, at least on one side. Any thoughts?

This bronze coin appears to be Greek but the bust and reverse figure appear more Roman. Perhaps a Provincial? It's 17-18mm in diameter and 4.6 grams. Any ideas?

Notgeld From Blumenthal With "Carl Thies" Stamp

This piece of notgeld seems to be listed under cat# 35.4c in Deutsches Notgeld Band 11. However, it does not bear the reverse stamp that the catalog states is on all notes of this issue. Instead, the obverse shows a stamp of what appears to be a cigarette and lottery store: Carl Thies. Does anyone have any info on this note?

Thanks!
