    Howdy Disincarnate - Welcome to the Forum !!

    The holed coins, Netherlands ducat and Leopold ducat, would be worth a bit over melt to most collectors because of the damage. At current prices that's a bit over $100 each.

    The 3 Venetian ducats should go for around $400 - $450 each.

    The Ottoman coin, I am not really familiar with and would need more info as I have a hard time even identifying those. If I knew an approximate date I could look up catalog value.

    Ottoman is an Egyptian Zeri Mahbub, probably AH1143 Mahmud I, date is hard to make out from picture. Should be ~2.5 grams.
    Catalog from $45 in VG to $175 in XF. Several varieties listed, all priced the same.

    Huh, thank you very much, I must say I sold one of this venecian ducat about a year ago for a price of 150 €, i don't believe that the price for the usual venecian ducat, and the Pietro Grimani ducat is the same :S
    I just had a phone call about the holland ducat for a price of 100 euros. Is that a good price? Thank you everybody, I appreciated.

    The value of any coin is based as much, or more, on its condition as it is the coin's scarcity. So values can vary greatly. I used to specialize in ducats, so I have provided my best estimate based on the pics you have provided.

    And if someone has offered you 100 euros ($150+/-) for the netherlands ducat then I would certainly take it in an instant for the coin is damaged and certainly not even scarce.

    Disincarnate -

    First of all I must apologize for a bit of misinformation on my part. The 1729 Holland ducat, along with almost the entire mintage, was on a ship, the Vliegenthart, headed for the Dutch East Indies, that sank off the coast of the Netherlands in 1735. It was not recovered until 1981. This does make the coin scarce. However, considering the damage, I would consider the offer made to you a fair one.

    As for this coin, it is a 30 kreuzer issued by Joseph II of Austria struck at the Vienna mint. Krause value is listed at $55 in that condition.
