Asking for some help, I am thinking of selling these and just going after U.S. coins. And wondering what I should I ask for price wise for all. Any help would be great . And sorry the picture isn't great. But what would you sell them for all together? Thanks. Great Britain 1875,1902,1908,1910,1912,1915,1918,1920. Canadian Large Cents 1912,1915,1916,1918 Australian Half Cent 1917, and large 1917  Edited by gwbird71 04/22/2015 02:48 am

Hard to say without better pictures. Off the top of my head the British and Australian pennies and halfpennies aren't rare years so unless they're VF or better they're probably junk box coins. The British 1920 penny looks to be in decent condition so it's probably worth a few dollars.

Without better pictures I recommend, you look at various on-line auction sites ans determine what similar coins have sold for.

If I was selling I would likely do 3 lots, one for each country. A quick scan of ebay sold and unsold should give you a feel for interest in lesser-grade common similars. Perhaps auctions at $1 per coin in 3 lots. Collectors love chasing bargains. Depending on postage you might not even sell at that price.

Are those bids or asking prices?

Both. If I sell them I am going to sell them to someone in my town, we have yard sale sites on Facebook around here were people sell all kinds of stuff. I just maybe they be worth more than a $1 a piece

They "might" be, that's the magic of online auctions. In 7 days one can find out what a coin is "worth."

We sell this stuff in bulk all the time. At flea markets we will sell you all the GB pennies you want at a quarter a piece. George Canada LC at a buck and Eddies at 2. Nothing rare there at all good luck.

Around here the half pennies go for a quarter to half dollar apiece, and the big pennies for a dollar, with one or two added if you buy five or ten of them, that kind of thing. The large cents don't seem to end up in the U-Pick bowls, they get carded up and priced. Those are coin shop rates here, you might get a bit more at a yard sale from someone who just likes them.
