Since this topic has expanded in focus, I have moved it back to the World Coin forum.

None of them are minted to the old Attic weight standard.
It seems that I am 2,400 years behind the times.

Actually an interesting bunch, and still worth keeping,
especially if your grand dad or some older relative who has passed, collected them.

The 1855 coin - it should be a bit of a large one - could possibly fetch a pretty penny. One Speciedaler of Norway. If it isn't polished and authentic (not sure about the polished part), it could indeed be worth something. Although I'm terrible at estimating these coins, I know that older Norwegian coins tend to be rather expensive. £100 to £500 or more? It looks to be in very good condition, with very little wear, so hopefully it is indeed not polished, damaged or counterfeit in any way.

A quick look didn't result in any reference prices, but CoinQuest might be helpful.

I saw 3 Russian coins. 20 kopeks 1909 and 1911 (the relatively high grade of the 1911 might fetch you 5 to 10 pounds based on recent ebay sales)and an earlier coin from 1870s/1880s for which no reverse was shown with the date.

The Japanese 10 sen coin appears to be from 1888 (reignal year 21). It is a common date for that type, and like many others in the last batch, worth a few pounds based on recent ebay sales.
