    Welcome to Coin Talk!

    Sorry, I don't see anything very rare. Most are common circulated items.

    A dealer will pay you $.03 to $.06 a coin or by the pound at whichever rate they decide. Plus bullion value for any silver coins you may have in there.

    Broken up into 15 coins each and sold on eBay may get you about $100

    By the way, some of those "old German" coins are from further south. ;) Deutsche Mark/Pfennig = Germany, Schilling/Groschen = Austria ...

    I've always brought back coins from traveling and have just finished sorting and filing them, rather than them just being in a bag. Many don't have any numismatic value to others, but they were cheap souvenirs.

    I don't think many of your coins have numismatic value, but it's hard to tell. Most items after WWII are going to have no value if they aren't made of silver. The British money is still in circulation (I didn't see any pre-decimal stuff), so you still have the current value.The Hungarian money is also in circulation but inflation has killed any value (230 forint to the $1).

    Btw, you also have a couple quarters in your British lot.

    I see coins from Thailand, Greece, Poland, UK, Morocco ... and a French one. But judging from the design, I believe that one is from an overseas territory, not sure. On the other hand, the "Old Belgian" batch has a few French coins too.

    Yes, have a look at the attached screenshot. I think (as in: I believe but am not 100% sure :) ) that the coins in the yellow boxes are from Morocco, and the ones with the red frames are from Thailand ...
