1. I don't really know the true value of these, as singles or a lot.

2. If they are worthy enough to be graded to increase the value?

3. And really trying to take the proper path with these coins.

I can't speak to the Canadian coins, but the dimes worth about their silver content unless there are some rare varieties (which can't really be seen from the picture.) They're all common dates in circulated condition. They wouldn't be worth grading as they're only worth a couple bucks apiece.

these are worth basically melt value which you can calculate at http://www. (124) Not Allowed - Auto-Removed .com. Unless one of those mercury's is a 42/1 variation.....which would be worth a significant premium.....however cannot tell by the pictures

Nice find! The Canadian coins look like two dimes, a nickel, and a penny. The dimes (80% silver) are worth roughly the same as the US dimes (90%), but the nickel and penny aren't.
