Very common, all. The lowers are Canadian 1 cents, still in circulation.

Upper left is Panamanian 1 Centisimo (cent) and right is a Swiss 20 Rappen, both of which I think are still in use, well got the Euros going on in Switzerland.

In the future, we need closer/larger images and usually they need to be less coins per image.

the bottom row are Canadian 1 cent coins, but I can't make out the dates. I was too slow

I can't tell what the top two are but obviously, the bottom row are post mid-20th Century Canadian cents. I don't think they really have much value if at all but, I'm not an expert and don't know key dates and so on for those.

Edit: Also too slow!

Apologies for the poor quality pictures, every time I try to upload my photos the site makes me have to resize it and it takes away the quality of the photo.

That's unavoidable. Most of the pics I upload are over 1MB originally. The Image Optimizer allows you to adjust image size and quality. As long as it's under 300kB in size, you're good. I think the problem is having so many coins in one image. It takes a little adjustment (trial and error) but, it works for me.

Fun fact 1: The Panamanian Balboa is pegged 1:1 with the USD and has been since we entered into a monetary agreement with them in 1904. We actually made all of their coins at Philadelphia until about the 1960s, them sporadically until the mid 1980s.

Fun fact 2: The Swiss rapper is still legal tender for about 20 cents (last I checked, CHF to USD was like 1.01:1), and is one of the oldest designs still in use today, being introduced in 1881, and totally unchanged except for a switch from nickel to copper-nickel in 1938.
