Hi, my names Mathew. I found some old coins that belonged to my gradmother that my mother was keeping in the house and I was wondering if any of them have much value.

VICTORIA 1962 (IN VINO VERITAS)
BRITAN NIA- 1806
ONE Penny 1868 (bad condition)
HALF PENNY- 1884 1898 1903 1886
AUSTRALIAN PENNY'S 1955 1952 1922 1959
AUSTRALIAN HALF PENNY 1958 1919
NAPOLEAN EMPEROR 3RD 1855 (bad condition)
KWANG TUNG TEN CASH (i guess some time in the 1850's not sure I cant read chinese)
NEW ZEALAND HALF CROWN 1933
FIJI 1957 FLORIN
ONE PENNY - Terrirtory of NEW GUINNEA 1938
FRANCAISE REPUBLIQUE 1901 1920 1912(has a number 50 on it)

Hi Mathew

Welcome to the forum !!

That is a nice list of world coins.

I will be moving your post to the world coin forum,, where I'm sure that you can get answers to your questions,, one thing I should mention is that coins are valued by condition,, if it is possible for you take good pictures of both sides of the coins and post them one or two at a time in this thread,, thos who reply will be able to give more accurate information .

This thread will move as soon as you post a reply to me .

Hi Matthew,

According to the McDonald's guidebook, the values for the Australian pennies/half-pennies are as follows:

1919 Half-penny: VG$0.50, F$2.50, VF$10.00, EF$55.00, aU$125.00, Unc$325.00
1958 Half-penny: Unlisted (you may want to double-check the date on this half-penny)

1922 Penny: VG$0.50, F$2.00, VF$12.00, EF$55.00, aU$140.00, Unc$425.00
1952 Penny: VG$1.00, F$3.00, VF$6.00, EF$18.00, aU$45.00, Unc$120.00
1955 Penny: VG$0.50, F$1.00, VF$2.00, EF$7.00, aU$12.00, Unc$35.00
1959 Penny: VG$0.50, F$1.00, VF$2.00, EF$5.00, aU$8.00, Unc$25.00

Sorry that I can't help you with the other coins, but my knowledge of world coins is severely limited. I'm sure that other members will be able to answer your other queries.

Regards,

Snooba.

Now having a breakdown of the values at least of the Australian coins,, If you can post the pics then grades can be estimated and the varying values applied.

If you have trouble posting the pics let me know and I will see if I can help !!
