Welcome!

Welcome! As Frank and Art have suggested, feel free to post a picture - valuations can often be done quickly simply by eyeballing to see if anything merits research (most don't) - anyone needing a week is likely too busy (or inexperienced) to meet your needs. Most likely you have some coins that were saved by someone who found them interesting, with the foreign ones being leftover money from trips abroad. The silver-tone 1960 Hong Kong $1 (which is made of a nickel alloy) was used until the late 1970s and is pretty common - a nice mint condition one can be had for under $10, and most circulated ones can be had quite reasonably.

$3 would be severely outdated info from the 90s, when $4-5 was the norm for VG-ish Nfld 50c., and the silver was <$5/oz Half dollar, in my experience, is generally understood both sides of the border, though it may cause a blink when used in Canada since Canadians don't encounter their 50c much at all (and even some banks will decline them out of lack of recognition), whereas many Americans (at least in banking and retail) readily recognize the half dollar.

Welcome! Generally speaking, Canadian pre-1919 50c are seldom available for close to spot, except for AG-G Edwardian and King George V issues, and most dealers usually don't put those aside, nor are they readily available. You're more likely to find Newfoundland 50c of 1917-1919 (same specs as the Canadian ones) in G-VG for close to spot. In a larger city, check around with dealers as the Newfoundland pieces show up somewhat regularly.

Welcome! One per country is always a fun theme to go by, since even in its simplicity it offers many variations: e.g. should one include circulating regional notes (e.g. Scottish and North Ireland pounds, HK dollars, etc.), defunct countries or would-be countries (e.g. Biafra), and whether significant regime or currency changes would count as separate. The number of possibilities is endless :-) Once you're reached 25 posts and a month on the forums we'd welcome you to post on the b/s/t forums.

I don't have a picture, but it should look the same as the other round security edge QEII HK$5s.

Always neat to see stuff from the old trading fort communities.

Neat!

Yes, Austria.

Dollars are always nice. It is unusual to see a chopmark on it, though.

I've never seen a fake of that type.

It appears to be Nepalese. The date is indeed 1804, though that's likely in reference to a specific event, just like how during the bicenetennial there were many 1776 dated souvenirs made.

Happy new year!

Morocco dinar.

Interesting! The current edition of Canadian Coin News just happens to also have an article on errors that includes several pics of coin feeders that have been struck, though one would wonder how they left the mint...

It's a privately assembled (i.e. unofficially put together by a collector / dealer) set of coins of the old British pre-decimal currency system. A neat souvenir.

It'll have some value but 1800s game tokens aren't too actively sought after, and survival rates are relatively high.

Interesting

#10 Antonianus. c. 270s-300s. #11 Constantinople founding commemorative, c. 337, Victory at prow of ship #12 Emperor dragging captive #13 Licinius (II?) / Jupiter standing with eagle #15 Antoninianus of Carinus

Hello and welcome! If you could provide larger and more closely cropped pictures it may assist in identifying as otherwise we'd only be able to provide very general attributions, if any. These are off the top of my head so may not be the most accurate #2 c. 350, probably Constantius Gallus, "Fel Temp Reparatio", Soldier spearing fallen horseman #3 c. 320s, probably Constantine/family, Campgate #5,6 c. 360s-80s?... Emperor dragging captive #7 c. 337, Commemorative of the founding of the City of Rome (issued in conjunction with a coin establishing Constantinople as the new Eastern Capital) #8 c. late 330s - early 340s. Commemorative of the Death of Constantine (depicted veiled). He's riding in a quadriga towards heaven as the hand of God reaches down to him #9 Emperor dragging captive?

Hello and welcome. Confirm 100% fake, of a very recent manufacture, and suggest you return for refund.

The style and patina are both suspect - quite possibly an imitation of an ancient Greek coin sold at a museum souvenir shop.
