Hi

The 1st picture the copper coins are worth nothing and the silver (post 1920) have intrinsic value...50% silver.

The 2nd picture all the coins (pre 1920) are sterling silver which is 92.5% pure.

The coins are in a very low grade and the lot may make about £40/50 on ebay...maybe a little more.

That's enough to buy the Xmas Turkey :)

Sorry Diddley :(

I've seen so many "old coins" and yet I found a widow in North Suffolk who gave her husbands collection of Henry v111 to a very nice man who cleared her husbands clothes.

Peter's a notorious pessimist :D

He's not so far out though. Me, I'd keep three coins from the second picture, as being reasonable foundations for the start of a collection. Top left and top right, and bottom right. Not great value but decent enough to keep.

The third picture needs re-taking - it's way too dark, especially the bottom (obverse).
