IIRC these are privately-sold sets that include one each of typical coins that were in circulation during WW2. Without seeing them it's not possible to come up with an exact value but it's a good bet that the company that assembled the set didn't include anything that was especially rare. As of 07/2008 some rough numbers might be:

> cent from the early 1940s - about 5¢

> nickel with a large letter over Monticello's dome - about $1. Without the letter, 35¢

> dime - about $1.10

> quarter - about $3.25

> half dollar - about $7.00

What is the best way to find the value of an old coin?

The easiest way is to look up your coin by type, date, mintmark, and condition (or grade) in a publication such as ''Coin World'' or ''Coin Values'' magazine. These, as well as others, provide their estimates of current market value. You can also search for coins similar to yours on eBay or other auction sites. These methods require you to know how to find the type and mintmark of the coin(s), and estimate their grade. The publications mentioned above can guide you through that process. Some people also use the ''Official Handbook of United States Coins,'' or similar annual publications for coins of other countries; while these are invaluable references, the price data is often stale by the time they are published. You can also take them to a reputable coin dealer and ask them for an appraisal; most of them will do this for free, if you have just a few coins. Some coin dealers will tell you how much '''they''' will pay for it, which is often 40-60% of the resale value. A good dealer, though, will be able to guide you through the process of determining the type, date, mintmark, and condition of the coin(s).
