 sounds like some nice family heirlooms  Oesterreische - sounds like Austria maybe Magyor - may be Hungary. kreuzer might be swiss? ? ? with out pictures it's hard to tell. sort out the king George V and VI take snaps of them and post in UK or Canada boards then the rest need pics in the world coin section and we can give you a better idea

You have got some nice coins from Central Europe!! Quote: 1860 "4" K K Oesterreische Scheidmunze Austria, 4 kreuzer, 1860 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces13819.htmlQuote: 1861 "1" same as above Austria, 1 kreuzer, 1861 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces2360.htmlQuote: 1896 "2" Magyor kiralyi Valtopenz Hungary, 2 fillér, 1896 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces4679.htmlQuote: 1891 "1" same as above Hungary, 1 fillér, 1891 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces7209.htmlQuote: 1851 kreuzer Austria, 1 kreuzer, 1851 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces4847.htmlQuote: 1816 ein kreuzer Austria, 1 kreuzer, 1816 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces3169.htmlThis coin was made at many mints, and each mint used a different mint-mark. Let us know what yours is - most likely "A" for Vienna. Quote: 1856 cino centimes (most likely) France, 5 centimes, 1856 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces485.htmlAgain, this is a coin with many different mint-marks. Quote: 1880 "2 bani" Romania Romania, 2 bani, 1880 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces20837.htmlThis coin is fairly rare. Quote: 1950 "5 pfennic" Two options: German Federal Republic (West Germany), 5 pfennig, 1950 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces658.htmlGerman Democratic Republic (East Germany), 5 pfennig, 1950 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces3022.htmlQuote: 1897 "2 centesimi" Italy, 2 centesimi, 1897 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces5955.htmlNow for the ones that I'd need pictures for... Quote: 1870 cinco romos? No idea what this could be. Quote: 1860 aeheka This is probably not a unit of currency. However, I am thinking maybe you misread something in Greek (ΛΕΠΤΟΝ [Lepton] or APAXMΗ [Drachma] are both Greek units of currency that look like they begin with the letter "A").
