Great find on the half Dime!! The coin with the hole also has significance? Many years ago people believed that silver had special healing powers. In my family and especially In the South, A silver coin on a string was placed around a child's neck when they were teething, had a fever, etc. I inherited the silver dime (with hole) my Grandmother and her brothers and sisters had worn as kids. It has since been passed on.Found a new spot...woohoo!

CONGRATS !!!The New Brunswick 10c is an 1864Nice going on the 2 silvers, and buttons.
The Vickie looks like a 1884 10 cent
The 5 cent is referred to as a "Fishscale" as the US 3 cent silvers were or "Trime"
