The last one looks like an early 1800s cartwheel penny.

It isn't a cartwheel but 1806/07

I was going to say 'Rip-off!' but then I saw the shilling. Great coin, is that silver?

That 1787 shilling is very nice, worth more than 14 dollars IMO. It will be sterling silver.
The worn coin: what is its diameter?

Quote: The shilling saved you.It is 92.5% silver but bullion only in that condition. Totally disagree with this, on ebay coins in this condition sell for £25-30. Even holed ones are selling for £12-15. Bullion value is only £3.70, i'll buy these off you or anyone else at BV all day!

I totally agree Coinaholic73, I also believe the grade on the 1787 shilling could be about fine on the brit system, and SPINK value this with semee of hearts at £30 for fine, and yes on ebay they do sell for a lot more than BV.
