World Coins Help (Asian, Central And South American And Middle Eastern)

Now these are actually two big bunches. With all respect, but it's a bit much to identify all of it at once: a smaller post with a smaller bunch would be my preference. For the coins I can identify, here's my findings:

My general impression is that most coins are just 'nice to have found somewhere', perhaps taken from circulation. Maybe taken home as souvenir after traveling abroad?

Then:
The big Mexican coin from 1944 is a silver one and worth melt.
The India 1945 coin 1/4 rupee is silver.
The 'Unser Schmerz und Stolz' isn't a coin but a medal and it should commemorate 1888. In excellent condition it should do a few dollars.

You got basically coins from four world regions:

- Middle east (Egypt, funny shaped coins with the guy with the funny hat, for example). I have a few of those, they are sold by the kilogram. The Palestine coin is a nice curiosity but won't secure your retirement funds. Far from, actually.

- Far east: I don't know about your Cash coins, someone else has a better educated opinion than I have. The Dong is nothing special, the Philippine coin isn't either. I have a bunch of the coins from Taiwan (the one with the flower in the middle), all of these come from coins I bought by the kilogram or I got them from circulation when visiting those places.

- Central America: most coins seem to be modern regular circulation coins. I found nothing special at first sight. Again: I got some from circulation and some from the bulks I bought.

- South America: the Brazilian 400 Reis coins are nice due to their odd denomination. Furthermore, I haven't spotted anything that made me jump off the sofa.

As said, it's quite a bit of a big batch, so I have looked at it globally and mentioned what I thought as highlights. As the batch is also so varied, other people who are more specialized in one of these areas might find more of interest.

ps. You do realize that you actually got an American coin (rather: token) there, do you? The 1 OPA red point is actually issued by the Office of Price Administration as rationing vehicle during World War II. There are over 50 different ones, I believe.

Thank you Ultra, and sorry if the pics caused any confusion. I didnt want to flood the forums with posts. Thanks for the information you have provided, I figured these coins were souvenirs at best but interesting to see some of them are silver.

And I had no clue about the red token. That is very interesting. Thanks!!

Some more silver coins there, not yet mentioned:
- The Panamanian quarter. Same weight and fineness as a US quarter of the same date.
- The two small Venezuelan coins, bottom right of the bottom set.
- The US-Philippines 10 centavos.
- The two Cuba 20 centavos 1915 and 1952, top right of bottom set.

For pricing generally, there are websites you can look up. The NGC World Coin Price Guide uses data pulled from the Krause world coin catalogues.
