Hi kzy
Nothing looks immediately valuable to me. I assume the coins are in circulated condition?
The 1938 shilling is 50% silver so is worth something for its metal content. There are two varieties of this coin. The reverse shows a lion sitting on a crown. If it is facing sideways, it's an English shilling. If it's facing forward, it's Scottish. No real difference in value.
Take a look at the 1919 penny. If there is a tiny H or KN to the left of the date, then it could be worth something, especially in high grades.
Otherwise these are the sort of coins my local dealer throws in his cheap trays - they were struck in large quantities and were in general use until we switched to decimal currency.
