Hello,
would sure appreciate if someone could help out here.
Recently was given these coins and have close to no idea what they are. I guess a few , if not all, are from Japan.
what I am looking for is the denominations and years.
Images show one side marked A-I and the other side also marked A-I. have no idea which the obverse and reverse is. Maybe I have them all mixed up.
Thank you to all who chime in.

B: Japan 1 sen Taisho 12 or 1923
E: Japan 1/2 sen Meiji 19 or 1886
F: Japan 10 yen Showa 29 or 1954 (should have the reeded edge)
G: Japan 10 yen Showa 60 or 1985 (smooth edge)
H: Japan 5 yen Showa 23 or 1949
The reeded edge 10 yen looks to have the most shot at something more than a nominal value.
edited to add: C looks to me to be a Manchuoku (?sp)/Manchurian occupied territory coins, 1 fen.
Stork nailed the others.
I listed them on the bay for 9.95 start
we shall see.......
