I been offered to buy a lot of 50+ silver european coins that has been been cut tested in addition to an acid. I have uploaded some examples. Do you think they worth buying? May they worth more than silver content? Or not even worth the silver? I have no previous experience with these type of issues.. need your opinion please.

Only worth the silver, in my opinion. Unless it is a rare key date.

I think that unless there is a super-rarity in there, the cleaning, acid-etching, and cutting reduce their value to silver content only.

Not much above silver value, but nevertheless still very collectible.

Very mistreated. I would only get one of these if a good one was impossibly expensive.

If you can buy them well below their melt value it might be worth it. They have very little numismatic value as is.
