Emperor Oli Posted August 15, 2004 Posted August 15, 2004 (edited) The first coin, quite obviously, is a French franc. Likewise, the second is a 5 centimes piece. I don't know the values for these.The next one is a George IV piece - it's either a sixpence or a shilling. We need the diameter to work out which. Can you identify the reverse it from the pictures below, or give us a date? (I've only posted two of the reverses so if you don't see it there, we can still work out which one it is).The next is an 1883 farthing. If you can attach a picture, we can grade it more accurately. But if it's fairly worn it will be worth about £5. Values for it vary between £2 and £100 depending on the grade.The last in a George V threepence. In the same grade as the previous coin, it's only worth about £1. Values for this vary between £1 and £10, so a picture would be useful here. Edited August 15, 2004 by Emperor Oli Quote
