These are the coins that I see when I buy foreign coins by the pound. Most have been demonetized, although the Swiss coins have a bit more value, as do the older Syrian and Palestinian coins. Frankly, the entire collection would not approach more than a couple of pounds in value, although some of the images were too dark for me to identify.
I would suggest that you do what was suggested in the post above. Buy a guide to world coins, sit down, go through it, and learn about each coin and maybe something about each country (or non-country, in the case of Palestine). There's the real value in this collection - the education you'd receive about world coins.
