Hi,

If we are talking about British coins there are several books that will give you an idea of the value, for example Coins of England and the United Kingdom 2020 or Coin Yearbook 2020 (there are many others as well).

The problem will be judging the condition of the coins – which can be subjective.

To have them valued can prove to be expensive and unless there are any coins of real merit and value probably not worth it. Again, as an example 1960s old pennies pretty much only have intrinsic value even in uncirculated condition.

Hope this helps in some small way.

Cheers,

Bob
