[QUOTE="dgfagen, post: 6255, member: 857"]I have just inherited some old coins. I don't expect that they are worth very much since the previous owner probably would have cashed in on them had they had high value. A search of the internet led me here and this looks like a great place to get some friendly expert advice without running around town trying to find a dealer/collector. So I am going to list what I have and see if anything jumps out at anyone who might be able to shed some light on them for me. I appreciate the help and advice. 1. 1791 coin: Front- crest with crown..the middle has a crowned lion bearing a sword. I G on left and right respectively. written around the edges is MO:ARG:ORD:FO:BELG:WESTF The back- says 1791 on bottom wommand leaning on column holding stick with hat? on top in right hand Written on outside edge HANC T VEMVR HAC NITIMVR 2. 1849 coin PORUGALIA ET ALGARA BIORUM REGINA on front with XX in middle of wreath Back says MARIA II DEI GRATIA with some type of crest in the middle 3. 1941 Now Foundland one cent piece 4. 1901 One Penny might be canadian has gladiator type figure on front and the back has bust of looking to my left. 5. 1877 one penny similar to number 4, but much better condition 6. 1912 one cent canada inside wreath on back bust of man on front 7. 1944 United States penny (maybe mercury?) looks like a D for mint location? crest with eagle on top on front. back has lady walking /standing with mountain in back. 8. republic of columbia V cents 1961 --light brown in color 9. republic of columbia V cents 1946 -- silver in color different design thatn number 8 10. republic of columbia diez cent 1956 --silver in color and again different design 11. New pence 10 with lion wearing crown on back front has Elizabeth II? 1969 12. Republic of columbia 1953 centavos? 13. 1864 l'union rait force lion standing up on front..back leopald II roi des belges 10 centimes 14. 1965 silver dollar? Churchill on front Elizabeth II dei Gratia regina f.d. on back 15. looks like silver dollar. 1977 woman riding sidesaddle on horse on front Elizabeth II dg reg fd back has fancy leaves with bird in the middle and a crown at the top. 16. Bell Fruit Token 10p looks like it might be from england. So any help identifying what these might be worth? I have a couple of others that I have already found out the worth. Like the Bank of upper Canada token mentioned in a preivious thread...but mine is slightly worn and has no holes. Thanks, David Fagen[/QUOTE]
