I have three coins that I could not find in the Numista catalogue. One seems to be from the Republic of Venice, one from the Mughal Empire, and one from the Ghurid (Ghorid) Dynasty.


 

Coins 1–2 (pictures 1–2)

According to the seller, this is a 1 soldo from the Republic of Venice, issued under Doge Paolo Renier (1779–1789).

  • Diameter: 19.5 ± 0.2 mm
  • Thickness: 0.75 ± 0.2 mm
  • Weight: 1.62 ± 0.1 g
     

I can find coins from the Doges before and after him on Numista, but not this exact type:

  • Before: Alvise Mocenigo IV (1763–1778)N#113101
  • After: Ludovico Manin (1789–1797)N#377016


 

Coins 3–4 (pictures 3–4)

I think this is a Dam from the Mughal Empire. According to a friend who can read Farsi, it is in the name of Muhammad Shah (c. 1726–1730).

  • Diameter: 23.5 ± 0.2 mm
  • Thickness: 5.8 ± 0.2 mm
  • Weight: 20.78 ± 0.1 g


 

Coins 5–6 (pictures 5–6)

I think this is a Jital from the Ghurid (Ghorid) Dynasty, possibly issued under Muhammad of Ghor (1173–1206). This is also based on my friend’s reading of the Farsi inscription.

  • Diameter: 14.7 ± 0.2 mm
  • Thickness: 2.6 ± 0.2 mm
  • Weight: 3.08 ± 0.1 g

Second one is sultans of Dehli, Sher Shah Suri, paisa of mintless type, trace of date visible as AH 95* so 951 only date listed

If it would be possible, could you send me the catalogues number or numista link? 

Since I would like to modify the labels of my collection😅😂.

The nearest I can find is G/G D920 https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=178240

Last one is Ghurid
Since there are so few on Numista catalog, it is super easy to find just searching what says in the coin holder “ghurid lahore”

On the Venice coin, it is possible the seller was wrong.  

Though only the last two letters (IN) of the legend around the lion are visible, the preceding letter appears more likely to be an N than an A, which would make it Manin (Renier's legend ends with RAIN .) .

 

But given the condition of your coin, hard to know for sure.

Sorry for late reply,
1) I checked again, and it looks more N so last Doge.
2) Thank you for the comment for indian coins, I can update label for my collection 
Thosen two indian coins look new for numista catalogue.

The 12 bagattini coin of Paolo Renier is now in the catalog:  https://en.numista.com/5315 .

The Renier coin appears to only have punctuation with dots in the obverse legend.  Yours has stars, also making it most likely it is the coin of Ludovico Manin.
