Does the seller have them identified? The first three are bronze, the fourth is silver from Miletus, the fifth is silver from Rhodes I believe. When you know what coins they are you can use ebay sold listings for prices and also search completed auctions online, like Sixbid, CNGcoins, CoinFoxa, etc. You can check on Vcoins.com for what dealers are asking. Values of ancient and modern coins depend on condition, demand, rarity. The third coin looks similar to one of mine, shield, reverse thunderbolt in wreath from Philadelphia, Lydia.

Well as to what they are worth, if you do an advanced search on each of sold items and only look at ones that were real auctions with a low start and bid, you will know what each would get you that way. And that is the lowest number you would get as selling anywhere else, like waiting for a buyer interested on VCOINS you get high prices. If I were to list them, one at a time, starting at $1 each, and in the order you listed them, these are the numbers I'd expect:
$10 to $15
$10 to $15
$15-$20
$15-$25
$25-$45

Well seller had a few dozen more similar coins but auction was tough and prices were super high (at least for me) ! :( I only managed to buy 3 coins  First one that I posted up went for over 20 $ Second for almost 30$ Third for 35$ Fourth for 37$ and Fifith I managed to buy for little over 23$ :) it should be Caria Rhodes - 190-170 BC Plinthophoric Drahma  I also bought these two:  Mysia kyzikos hemiobol - for 33$ 450-400 BC AR Hemiobol  Seleucid Antioch II Teos - for 34$ 261-246 BC, Sardis What do you guys think ? Did I do ok with these ? Before these I only had one Ancient Greek coin. PS Biggest disappointment was not getting the last coin from same seller because of which I even started bidding on others.... but that medieval coin went for double its catalogue, and in my opinion real price...

Just an FYI, I use google to search: type in the specific coin and then "Vcoins sold" to and look at the results in the images to see what they have been selling for.

Thanks guys. Coins arrived yesterday, and I'm happy with them :)
Had a little trouble finding all the catalogue references for every one of them because I like to have it all for each coin sorted, but I managed to do it :)

What do you think about this one ? Should be a Celtic drachm but is it genuine ?   My collection on Numista page: 7500 different coins and counting... https://en.numista.com/echanges/pro...hp?id=129798 |

@mvo, when you get the Drachm in hand, can you please post a picture of the edge? I'd also like to know the diameter and weight. Thx.

@Spence Coin is exactly 2.03 grams and diameter is little less than 14mm but coin has obviously been clipped on the edge... Speaking of edge its got a few cracks along as you can see, here are some pics:    What do you think ?
