    The Spanish coin (no denomination shown) is copper-nickel, not silver and has minimal value regardless of the denomination.

    The Panama 1/10 Balboa (Y#14, KM #11) is .900 fine silver and the same weight as a US dime of that era. In that condition it is probably worth bullion value.

    All glory is fleeting.

    On the Spanish Franco coin, 1957 is not the year it was minted. There are a couple stars on the reverse that have a 2 digit number inside - that is the year of mintage (yours might show 64?).

    Also, the Panama coin has the fineness and weigh right on it: "LEY 0.900" and "Gr. 2.50".
