    @ERWYN... Welcome aboard. They are Eisenhower dollars... one is a bi-centennial issue. The lighting/pictures are nor really good enough for an assessment of grade. Cheers, RickO

    In the photo they look dark, but these keep their original color. The coins have not been cleaned...

    I also have other coins that I would like to know their value

    Welcome aboard @ERWYN
    As stated above, the coin pictured is a Bi-Centennial Eisenhauer dollar.
    IMO, it looks like a "circulated" coin worth only face value.
    There are many Eisenhauer experts on this forum who can give you a better idea about this coin.
    Best of luck.

    Kennedys are my quest...

    I can not make out the mint mark for sure from your pictures.
    Again IMO, a face value coin only.

    So far, everything shown has no numismatic premium and is worth face value. The coins except the dime don’t circulate much and you may find them interesting to hold onto, but they won’t sell at a premium.

    Yes they are coins that circulated they were found in an very old abandoned mill that caught fire

    The dime is the one that made me the most interesting

    Because of the round mark on the back ...

    It is just damage.

    The 1 Centavo might be a $4 coin based on what I found on https://en.ucoin.net/coin/mexico-1-centavo-1869-1897/?tid=73191

    Aside from the Mexican coin, the US coins aren't really very old. The Jefferson dollar is less than 20 years old. Abandoned or not, someone has been there not too long ago. I can only speculate. I do know that the US small dollars circulate in Ecuador. ;)

  • ERWYNERWYN Posts: 29

    Not all of them were found there

    I have that in my wallet I like it because of the statue of liberty

    Those are the type of coins best given to a child to spark their curiosity. Other than that the next best recipients are a bank or Starbucks as they are worth face value. Dealers may charge 1.50 for the Ike’s but they don’t sell many of them

    As you have been advised all the US coins are just worth the face value, none of them has any numismatic value to them.

    Where did you find the other coins?

  • MsMorrisineMsMorrisine Posts: 35,019 ✭✭✭✭✭

    The copper one with the woman on the front and the leaves on the back is a Canadian cent. The woman is Queen Elizabeth.

    The Canadian cent is worth less than an American cent

    How do you know that the coins are circulated? Do you know where they circulated? Why was the mill abandoned? How did the fire start? Did you find the coins? This is very mysterious. 🔥🏭🏜💰🤔

  • JBKJBK Posts: 16,242 ✭✭✭✭✭

    And what did the mill produce? :)

    The mill produced flour that burned about 100 years ago It's in Altar Sonora When I find the photos of the place I will publish them there are some abandoned mills in the region this is one but it is not where the coins were found give me a little time and I'll upload photos of the exact place at this time the area is inaccessible due to the insecurity of the drug cartels

  • JBKJBK Posts: 16,242 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Wow...that's one heck of a ruin.

    Stay away from the cartels. :#

  • ERWYNERWYN Posts: 29

    I am from the region

    Your grandma sounds like a terrific woman.
    I had a pretty neat grandpa who also collected coins. He used always to tell me, "Son, you're going to drive me to drinking if you don't stop collecting those old hot Lincolns.
