    I got a couple of these coins. The look like arabic writing and a P. I tried to search the photo but to no avail.
    Thanks.

    Turkish 'tugra' symbol. Probably brass belly dancer coins, hence the hole as they were worn as jingling jewelery. Not real coins, just coin-like.

    Those show up at yard sales here with no takers. They look cute but aren't good for much.
