    No. 1 - Indian Princely State?
    No. 2 - Indian Princely State?
    Maybe Newsman will wander by and read them for us.

    No. 3 - British India, KM#524, 11.66g .9170 silver ASW .3438 oz., bullion value $2.99 at today's New York market close. I don't see a dot, so it's probably a Calcutta mint, 211,206,000 mintage; but it really doesn't matter, as both the Calcutta and Bombay (226,706) versions are listed at $5 F, $8 VF, $12.50 XF and $20 Unc.image

    I'd grade it VG obverse (Side 2), and F reverse.

    The first one might be Arabic, but the second is definitely not, so I would guess India as well.

    The date on the second one appears to be 1775.

    #2 looks like a Sikh Rupee of the early to mid 1800s.

    You might POST them on the South Asian Coin Group (SACG) on Yahoo.
