*update*
best I can tell the silver is Ottoman Empire ( Egypt ), the other coins are ottoman also just not enough detail left for dating but the silver is 1915 ish. Curious but my best guess is a soldier brought it back from WW1.

Silver coin is Turkish Ottoman 2 Kurush ca. 1929. The two larger coins are Egyptian 5/10 Qirsh ca. 1927-33. :thumbsup01:
