What is the value of 12 shillings and sixpence?
26.5 pence This is not accurate. It depends on the year of the money. If the money was from the time when coins were .925 silver, then 12 shillings and sixpence would be worth 20 pounds, 62 pence in today's money (as of 1/18/2016) assuming you don't add any numismatic value on top of that. .500 silver coins would be worth 11 pounds, 15 pence. Even base metal coins would have to be put through an inflation calculator to arrive at an accurate amount in today's money.

How much is a quarter of florin cents from 1859 worth?
You've got to be more specific. First, the usual definition of a florin would be the British coin worth 2 shillings (1/10th of a pound). Because of this, there would be no such thing as a "quarter of a florin" let alone "cents" which cents have never been used when referring to British currency. So a quarter of a florin would be half a shilling or sixpence. But sixpence coins would always say sixpence and never would say "a quarter of a florin" I'd look at your coins again and post a new question.
How much is 2 bob?
In the UK a bob was a slang term for a shilling. There were 20 shillings in a pound. A ten shilling note was commonly called a ten-bob note. There were 2 half-pennies to the penny and 3 pennies to the threepenny (pronounced thrupenny: the u is pronounced as in hut; and commonly known as a thrupenny-bit). There were 6 pennies in a sixpence (commonly known as a tanner) and 12 pennies in a shilling. There were 2 shillings in a florin (commonly known as a two-bob bit) and 2 shillings and sixpence in a half-crown. Before that there were 4 farthings in a penny and 5 shillings in a crown and 21 shillings in a guinea. The Mad Hatter in Alice in Wonderland wore a top hat with a 10/6 price tag on it which meant 10 shillings and sixpence which was half a guinea, a considerable amount of money at the time the book was written. Halfpennies and pennies were copper coloured; thrupenny-bits were brass; tanners, shillings, florins, and half-crowns were silver-coloured. In the UK today a bob is worth 5 pence (5p) which is yet one-twentieth of a pound as was the shilling in its day. In the USA today a bob would be worth around 7 cents.
