Alright so I'm not really sure of any of the specifics of these coins considering they are all foreign. I'm hoping someone on here has some sort of info on them because I don't know much about the value of foreign coins. Anyways heres a list of whats here:
1944 Twenty Centavos Phillipines (this is silver)
1920 8 Doubles Guernesly?
1987 and 1994 canadian dollars (yes these are probably worth a dollar haha)
1999 1 euro cent
Some random 10 coin I believe is Arabian with a palm tree on it(gold in color)
1971 1/2 new penny
1974 canadian nickel(I know what thats worth)
1969 50 New Pence

1965 three pence
1985 twenty pence

1948, 1963, 1965, 1966 One Pennies (These have a seated roman figure I believe they are British but I don't know)

If you want to start collecting foreign coins, get some books first. Looking over the coins you have, they might sell for $5-$6 all together. If you go foreign, go old. 1800's. Most won't be worth what American coins are but they will be affordable and neat to look at.
