Hi, I just registered, and am trying to find out if a few coins I have are worth trying to sell, or what their worth are. Here they are:

1. Shell's Mr. President Coin Game - John Quincy Adams
2. two General Motors Builds Its First 50 Million
3. 1933 V.F.W. National Home Christmas token
4. 1934 V.F.W. National Home Christmas token

Thanks in advance for the help.

I really don't know what coins you've got, but I'm sure others do. Pics would be great!

I moved your topic to another forum. Hopefully your items can be identified for you.

Hello and welcome.

Technically, your items aren't "coins" (pieces of money issued by the government). What you've got are either tokens or medals.

As for value, the short answer is, "it depends". Tokens and medals aren't as popular with collectors as "real coins", so even if something really is "rare", it doesn't make it valuable. I don't know if there are catalogues that list values for items such as yours. You could try an ebay search to see if similar items have been sold there and what they sold for, but values for exonumia are generally much less consistent than values for coins.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis

Thanks. When I was trying to search one of the tokens, I stumbled upon this site. Thanks for the information.
