    I got some foreign coins and couldn't seem to identify these 4.
    Anyone know what they are?

    The Israeli coin (1 Agora, 100th part of the Shekel) is from 1980 (Hebrew year 5740). It is the last year this coin was minted since in 1981 there were new coins introduced.

    In my opinion, it's price/value is extremely low.

    Official details:

    Diameter: 15 mm. Weight: 0.6 gr. Edge: Smooth. Obverse: Palm tree; "Israel" in Hebrew and Arabic. Origin of motif: Bar-Kochba coin (132 - 135 C.E.). Reverse: The denomination "1 New Agora" and the date in Hebrew. Alloy: Aluminium 97%, magnesium 3%. Design: Currency Supply Unit, Bank of Israel. Date of issue: February 24, 1980. Ceased to be legal tender: September 4, 1985.

    According to my Krause, the coin pictured, KM# 106, was minted 3 years, 1980, 1981 and 1982. The new coin was first minted in 1985, KM# 156.

    Yeap, my mistake. Probably confused with the bills or some other coins. The new current Agora was first minted in Sep. 1985.

    Number 3: Dominican Republic 5 Centavos, made of Copper-Nickel. The subject is the Centennial of Death of Juan Pablo Duarte (1876-1976).

    Juan Pablo Duarte y Diez, along with Francisco del Rosario Sanchez and Matias Ramon Mella is one of the main figures of the Dominican Republic's independence from Haiti in 1844.
