Have you checked on ebay to see anyone is selling coins like this. If they are save the auction and check after it finished to see what they brought. That might help you see what they are selling for.

I believe this is the wrong category for this topic...

And, some of those (i.e., the Hong Kong and France ones) are highly counterfeited in China. I'm wary.

Agree with 'Grozy', it's wold coins.
Can recognise that is at least one coin each from China, Mexico, France and the British Commonwealth.

'Mido', better post each coin separately with a clear picture of both sides in http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...forum_id=124
If you include size, ie diameter you will make it even easier.

I'm almost completely sure these are counterfeit's. Coins of the same die can be seen for sale on Alibaba for $1-$2 each.

They are not genuine. The only one that look genuine is the holed French coin. (or French colony)

Their color makes me wary they may be counterfeit. Can you tell us the weights of the coins?

Hello and welcome.

I believe all of them, except perhaps for the two at bottom left and the Mexican dollar at bottom right, are counterfeits. But we really need pics of both sides to be sure.

The "Libertad" wording on the cap in the mexican one looks too bold to be real.

you will learn lots from members here. It's a pretty cool assortment of world coins, even if they're fakes. Maybe they'll stimulate an interest in collecting guinine coins.

It's fun thinking where they came from, where they've been made and who they owner was. Like was the owner part of a big counterfeiting rink?
It's always fun to fantasize!!

Enjoy your time on the forum it's a great hobby and place to hang out!!
