Hi folks,
I am in the UK and don't collect usa coinage so don't know what to do with these coins nor if they are any good.
They date 1900,1901,1902 and are in little cardboard/plastic holders so are difficult photograph, I have tried my best.

Do they have a trade value or shall I just chuck them in the random box ?
Thanks.

Indian cents are among the most popular of classic coins to collect on this side of the Big Pond.
Those are nice circulated examples of common dates, readily available stateside for a dollar or two each.
If you have no interest in them, it should not be too difficult to find them a good home.

Not extremely valuable, but still beautiful coins.

Yes their good. There are no bad coins :)

If you keep them, you might want to find some nickel/penny sized holders. Those look like half dolllar size holders, and the coins could slide around in them causing wear.

Nice gift. The 1900 looks like it has been cleaned sometime in the past. But all are worth having particularly outside the US.
I imagine they will make great conversation pieces in the UK.
