I inherited quite an extensive coin collection of foreign and domestic. I would like if possible to please get some help on identifying these I believe to be egypt. I have tried to look at other forums, however I don't seem to quite find the ones I have, some are close. Any help would be greatly appreciated, how to tell what they are, markings etc.
Coin 6 is the same as coin 7 just different years.
All the pictures look the same colour yet coins 2 and 5 are more silvery.
Assuming those are the correct links.

has 190 and a diamond shape, then 1 backwards 7 79
I don't see the problem? ZacUK gave you the islamic calendar, translated the numbers and gave the link. The 0 in 190 is an arabic 5, the diamond an arabic 0, so the Christian date is 1950. After that Christian date follows the Hejira date: the backwards 7 is the arabic 3, what looks like a 7 is an arabic 6, so: 1369. So ZacUK's link (https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces9317.html) is correct. Or do I misinterpret your last post?
Yes I think you did mis-interpret, all I was saying because of his help I was able to find all except for one coin, on the database, He was very helpful, as all this is new to me, especially dealing and learning foreign coins, I guess I don't understand what the problem was, and why you seem to be upset because I mentioned that. I am glad you are so experienced, however I am not, I did not mean anything by that statement so I apologize if you felt otherwise. I was very excited to learn what I did
What through me off was the diamond shape, as looking at the other coins I thought it was different, this was my first attempt, I know I will get better the more familiar I get with the different writings and languages,...Thank you all for your help, I found them all. Hope y'all have a Happy Thanksgiving.
