Hello everyone! I have been reading on here for a few days now and I'm really interested to find out which of my coins (if any) are actually valuable and which have a interesting story behind them.

Sorry to say, but most are low-value, demonetized coins that are very common. There are two exceptions: The Swiss 1 Frank (the "1 Fr" coin), which is worth about €0.90 or BLN 2.00. The Cypriot piastre is a coin with moderate collector value, but I fear I cannot say a value to it, other than 'more than the others'.

The Cypriot Piastre was of the UK imposed currency system which predates the decimalisation of the Cypriot Pound. 9 Piastres made a Shilling and 20 Shillings made a Pound. After that, 100 Cents made a Pound.

what about the pendant on the top picture? I think that might be something of value not sure because I cant make out details, but seem important, although most likely sort of reproduction, but still could be valuable.

from what I can make out some sort of religion (saint), in Orthodox church and mostly likely Greek.

It is an image of CHrist Pantokrator, which was common on Byzantine coins. But I agree this looks like some kind of reproduction.

I cannot be sure of the U.S. cent, but it looks like 1915-D. If this is correct, then in this condition (at laeast AU by U.S. standards) it is quite a collectible coin, and far more valuable than any of the others.

@hrs, can you tell the date on the U.S. Cent? And show better photos of both sides.

You will not get rich of that little collection.
In Belgium these items are sold per kilo for a few euros....
The pendant is indeed a replica of a coin.
