Can you spend old British coins?
Most likely no. Most British predecimal coins are no longer legal tender. The predecimal Crown was never demonetised and is still legal tender. The decimal Halfpenny, the larger pre-1990 5 Pence, the larger pre-1991 10 Pence and the larger pre-1997 50 Pence have all been demonetised and are no longer legal tender. The Commemorative 25 Pence and Five Pound (Crown) coins are legal tender, but not intended to be circulated. All other British decimal coins should be all right to spend.

Is a British Two Pound coin legal tender?
Yes, the Five Pound (Crown) coin is legal tender in the United Kingdom in values up to any amount. Despite being fully legal tender the Five Pound (Crown) coin will often be refused in shops simply because it is not commonly seen in circulation. The reason for this is that, though the coin is of a standard size and weight, it has no standard face designs, the coins are always of a commemorative nature and so are often kept away in private collections. There is no way to force an individual to accept any form of payment, including legal tender. Transactions in the UK are always a mutual agreement between two parties. The Post Office have stated that they are happy to receive the coin as payment for goods and services. A bank should also be able to exchange the coin for change or a banknote, or you can deposit it into an account.
Is a 1946 Australian Florin legal tender?
All Australian coins minted since the first post-Federation Australian coins were minted in 1910, are still considered to be Legal Tender according to the Australian Currency Act. You may however, have a problem getting a shop keeper to accept a handful of Pennies and Shillings as payment, not only because the shop keeper possibly will not want them, but there seems to be a grey area in the interpretation of the Act as to what constitutes Legal Tender. As of 2010, the only Australian coins to have been demonetised are the early Proclamation coins and the Holey Dollars and dumps.
What is the value of a 1987 Bailiwick of Jersey 2 Pence coin?

The Bailiwick of Jersey currency (JEP) is pegged at par with the British Pound Sterling (GBP) and the Jersey decimal coinage is near identical in dimensions, composition and history to the equivalent British coins. Jersey currency is "legal tender" only in Jersey, but may be regarded as "acceptable tender" in Britain.
