Over 15 different types of coins were made in the 1800's in Hong Kong. There is about 20-30 different years for each of the 15 types. The condition would affect the value of the coin, as well. So, it could range from a few pence to thousands of pounds. Be more descriptive.
It depends on the condition, dates, mintmarks and denominations of the coins in the collection.
If it is a collection of 50 cent coins, it could be worth a lot, or not that much. It depends on the dates of the coins and the condition. 50 cent coins from before 1965 are worth more because they are 90% silver.
As of 11/2008 a set of uncirculated 1971 U.S. coins retails for about $9.
If you are a collector of these coins, then, yes, they are worth buying even if only for the growth of the collection. If you are an investor, then perhaps ultra high grade uncirculated and proof coins may be a worthwhile purchase, but, who can say for sure?
Definitely, there have been coins for at least 3000 years.
bugger all - it is a copper coin with a silver finish
Collection of coins is called collection of cons only n there is no specific word for it. It is different from numismatics as numismatics is the systematic study of coins. Mere collection of coins cannot be called as numismatics.
For a numismatic collection the non-circulated coins are more valuable. The price difference between circulated an non-circulated coins is very important in catalogs.
Which of these was not a form of national currency in the 1800s? A+
7-28-11>>> From the range of dates, the collection is likely in a Whitman Coin Folder Number Two. If the collection is complete, this folder holds 90 coins that includes the 1970-S Small Date variety, which is the only coin of any value, especially if the coins are circulated. As for a value? The collection needs to be seen. Take it to a coin dealer, but if the 1970-S small date is missing, don't expect much if any thing. Unfortunately, with most of the collections like this I see, the folder is worth more than the coins.
Alisha had 822 coins.
