What is the value of a South African 1951 5 Shilling coin?

You are asking about a 5 Shilling coin (also called a "Crown") from South Africa (KM#40.2). The coin weighs 28.28 grams and is 50.0% silver, giving it an ASW (Actual Silver Weight) of 0.4546 troy ounces. With silver at US$17.63 per troy ounce (as of Ma7 21, 2010), the "melt value" of this coin is about US$8.01.

The obverse of the coin has a portrait of King George the Sixth and the words "GEORGIVS SEXTVS REX" (Latin for "George the Sixth, King"). The reverse has an image of a Springbok (an African antelope), with the words "SOUTH Africa", the date, and "SUID-AFRIKA" (Afrikaans for "South Africa") above and the denomination ("5 SHILLING") below.

363,000 of these coins were produced in 1951. According to the 2010 Standard Catalog of World Coins, an example is worth about US$10.00 in Extremely Fine condition and US$18.00 in Uncirculated condition.

What is the value of a coin that says 1966 medio Balboa?

My best guess is that your coin is a one-half ("medio") balboa piece from Panama. Panamanian balboas track the U.S. dollar on a one-for-one basis and are struck on the same planchets. Your 1966 coin was thus struck on the same 40% silver blank used for Kennedy halves of the time, so it would be worth $3 or $4 for its metal content.

What is diez mil intis?

"Diez Mil Intis" is Spanish for Ten Thousand Intis. The Inti was the currency of Peru between 1985 and 1991. It replaced the "sol" at a rate of 1,000 sol = 1 inti. It in turn was replaced by the nuevo sol ("new sol") at a rate of 1,000,000 intis = 1 nuevo sol. The 10,000 intis bill was produced in 1988 and has a portrait of the Peruvian poet César Vallejo on the front. It is no longer exchangable into dollars (or even into nuevo sol), but the theoretical face value (based on the exchange rate of the nuevo sol as of April 2009) is about a third of a US cent. Its value to a collector would depend on its condition.

How much is a 1890 E Pluribus Unum dollar coin in good condition worth?

In lightly circulated condition, it's worth $10-$12 .. Unless it has a "CC" mintmark on the back above the "DO" in DOLLAR -- then it's worth $75-$110 Also please note that ALL U.S. coins bear the motto "E Pluribus Unum" ("From many, one") so this is not a distinguishing characteristic of a coin. The denomination, date, mint mark, and condition are the most helpful characteristics to start with.
