Hello, I have several coins that I cannot figure out, or am unsure of if they're not fakes (fully prepared to accept it, just gotta know). I'll put what each of their description was. sorry for the slightly odd image sizes:


Bikanir - Copper Takka - 15.89gm
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Gujarat Sultanate - Copper Coin - 14.11gm
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jaunpur - Mahmud Shah Lodhi - 1 Tanka - Billon Coin - 9.64gm
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jodhpur - Takhat Singh - 1 Takka - Copper Coin - 20.18gm
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Malwa Akbar - Copper Falus - 2.99gm (claims it's a rare coin)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mewar - Copper Takka - 15.89gm
I suspect this is: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces141639.html
but I have no idea
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nawanagar - Copper Paisa - 8.22gm


Thank you all for your time :)

First, I don't see any reason to suspect that any of these are fakes. They are all relatively low value, look OK, and I'm not aware of counterfeits of these. Here are a few observations. Your partial attributions are pretty good as starting points.

Number 2 looks like this one
https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=60414
Sultans of Gujarat, Mahmud Shah I, 1 ½ falus, Mustafabad, G170

Number 3 looks like
https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=123632
Sultans of Jaunpur, Husain Shah, Tanka, J27

Number 4 does appear similar (on one side) to Jodhpur takkas such as KM 12.3 and 14.1, but I couldn't find a match for the other side. Also appears to have a date 1777 which is difficult to make sense of.

Number 5 is similar, but not identical, to
https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=59369
Akbar half falus, Malwa type, Ujjain

Number 7 looks like
https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=228859
Nawanagar, Shri Jamji, Dokdo, frozen AH (9)78, KM#2

Anyway, I hope this helps some.
Seeker55 has already answered most of them

1] Bikanir - Copper Takka - Ratan Singh in the name of Shah Alam II, KM#23

2] Yes it is of Gujarat Sultanate - 1 ½ falus - Mahmud Shah I - Date AH909

3] Yes it is of Jaunpur Sultanate - 1 Tanka - Hussain Shah - Date AH880

4] Jodhpur - Copper Takka - Frozen date AH1267 - pseudo mint name Dar al-Mansur Jodhpur. Actual mint Sojat. JL# 06.01

5] Malwa - Half Falus -Akbar - Not rare

6] Mewar - Paisa - your attribution is correct

7] Yes it is Dokdo from Nawanagar

All coins are okay. These are very common coins and of low value(they cost max 2-3$ each if in very good condition. You can even buy these coins in bulk based on its value in copper weight). Doesn't make sense in creating fakes of them.
