Does anyone know where are these coins from?
One is from Eritrea I can see that. One is from United arab emirates.
One I think that is from Syria. But the rest of them? ....
Please if some of you can help please do that.

Here is a link to the State of Eritrea

a small country pinched between the Sudan, Ethiopia, and the Red Sea.

The other coins will have to be identified by those more expert in middle eastern / far eastern coins than I.

starting top left going right-
UAE 25, Syria 50 piastres, unknown "5 denomination,
Syrai 1 pound, Syria 50 piastres, unknown "5" denomination from 1992
Eritrea 25

The two unknowns on the right could be Yemeni but I need to see the other side.
