When I was a kid I had a little collection and today I was thinking about things I could sell so I thought of that, I don't know if there is something really valuable but maybe you can help me find out what I can expect :

*** Edited by Staff - Sorry that image site is nasty with popups, you'll need to find a different one. ***

I took the other side but it's already a lot of photos, if you want another photo for a coin particularly don't hesitate to tell me (if you can't read something for example).

Anything dated between 1940-1945 is likely worth a few bucks. So is anything dated pre-1900; I'd bet the Trade dollar and (even more likely) the Carolus IIII coin are fake though. Also, some of the Swiss (Helvetica) coins are worth a few bucks just in face value - but pretty much nothing beyond that. (I suppose the gold piece is also valuable if real, but I'm not qualified enough to say what it even is.)
The white 50c with the lion is intriguing... what's the date? Also, what's the other side of the 5 Frang (sic) piece in pic #0023?
Other than that, just about everything else I can see (excepting the large-hole piece of the first several pics - upper right in the last pic - which as far as I can tell isn't even a coin) is random recent European coins worth 20 cents each on a good day. Sorry.
(Also, your photos seriously stretched my screen, and your instruction on how to see them doesn't seem to be working... I succeeded by opening in new tab and ignoring the pop-up window.)

First, thank you for answering and taking the time to watch the photos ^^.
I edited to be more readable.

A few bucks is not bad, so it's not negative don't worry ^^.

Where is the 50c in the photos?
The other side of the 5 Frang is :

On the little gold coin is written "Respvblica S.Marini 1898".

Before 1900 I also saw the 5F belgian 1873.

There are also several (5 to 10) silver coins.
Those are worth their melt value.
The 5 frang coin from Luxembourg is nice but not of great value.
The 5 francs 1873 from Belgium seem to be in a higher grade. I am not a specialist of these ones but I guess it should be around 50$.

Sorry I was mistaken and it's actually a 50 Franc.
Googling seems to indicate it's also silver though so in a way my suspicions were correct
