Take photos of the Victorian coins. My quick look through your list picked out the 1889 5 cents as a scarcer date. The others are common and as some have noted are not worth much unless in very high grade. I take it GTA means Greater Toronto Area. You could bring them to the Toronto Expo http://www.torontocoinexpo.ca/Gene

So a dealer would pay 40% of those prices roughly?

Yes and no. A dealer would likely pay melt for the 5cent there is no room to cover overhead and profit on a $5 coin. For the 25cents, yes, roughly.

Thanks. I'm in no rush to get rid of them so ebay would probably be a better option wouldn't it?

I personally believe you need to purchase a book, and understand grading, and coin values. this is the place to learn more about starting out , in the world of coins, you are no where near ready to sell coins on ebay..check with your local coin shops . unfortunately they will low ball you on value, so buy a canadian coin news for 3.95, this will give you a starting point. you can then see what are the key dates/more valuable coins and go from there..most silver coins are worth melt or slightly above unless they are in high grades..then you can break your coins into lots of coins to be evaluated for more money..the rarer ones you can then get opinions from coin stores.. but I highly recommend getting some coin books before you do anything..

I'd give the 5 cent AG3 and the quarter a G6 at best. The majority of the other coins will probably be just silver value if they are all of similar condition. The older coins or the rarer dates obviously have the best chance of being worth more. You could probably just take pictures of the Victorian and Edward coins and post here. The rest is probably around melt value by the looks of it.

In all likelihood all of the dimes, quarters, halves and dollars from 1968 and later are not silver and are probably just spending money. Some of the dollars might be silver. Silver coins are easily distinguishable from the nickel.....just compare the colour of a pre 68 quarter to one after. If any of the coins are in mint cases the values might be higher, as would be the case for any in essentially perfect condition. However, unless the coins are already in graded holders they are probably not high enough grades to count. The silver dimes, quarters , dollars and halves from 1937 to 1967 are probably all worth melt value if they look like the ones you posted. The Newfoundland coins should be worth a little more and the pre 36 coins too.
