Here are some better quality images that may help.
Thank you kommodore!! Do you know how to date the Pya? I wonder why they changed the UAR crest to have an additional star, but then in later years it has 2 and 1 again? 8.
[The order on these is different now, I just realized. Sorry for any confusion. Thanks again everyone for looking!!
Well it's very simple to date it:
Just search on internet myanmar numbers and the year is:1955.
This is the top left: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces7633.html year 1962.
The second from top right is from thailand.
The one with a square hole appears to be a Japanese Mon? I cannot find this in the catalog. Does anyone know more about Japanese coins who can help? I do not want to add it incorrectly. See the link below for a picture of the identical coin.

From the new pictures, the bottom middle one is this one. Oh and the bottom right one is this one. The last one is Siamese (Thai) and that's all I got cause I've got to go.
You're really lucky to have the Chinese cent (the one with the hole). Not only is it rare, the condition it's in is really something. It's hard to find it in the condition that you have it in, let alone actually finding the coin. You might want to worry because Chinese coins are counterfeited often so there's a small chance it's not real.

Цитата: ideologistYou're right, but I worry less about counterfeits in the 1 cent, bronze family of coins.
Aha you have no idea how many Chinese copper coins are counterfeited.
Probably a quarter of Chinese copper coins I've seen are fake. So I'd worry about it because that 1 cent is really valuable if it's real and you're lucky to have it.

Well check if it has green residue. Are the details on the surface crude, but unblurred? Does the edge of the coin have damaged rims and green residue?
If you don't have those, you probably have a real one. From what I see, it looks real, but I should double check.
