Sold some coins I thought worthless for $61., please enlighten me

The wife picked these up at a fleamarket, paid a quarter each. I asked around, was told they were maybe worth a dollar each at best. I told her I didn't have any need for them so she put them on e-bay under her own ID. Auction ended at $61.00 What did we just sell? i'm in shock.
Thanks,

It's got to be the Danish 2 Kroner 1924 that did it.
I think it runs at around $20 in F and $100 in VF condition. My prices could be a bit off, but it's definitely by far the most valuable coin in that bunch.

coins were made in fairly substantial numbers and saw heavy circulation. Most have been de-
stroyed over the years.
Danish coins have been hot for a while now and there are a lot of people in Europe looking for
the "common" moderns and finding them unavailable. This type is not often seen so it's possible
that Krause doesn't have it dramatically overvalued. It is not seen that much less often than the
other dates so it would seem this is overvalued or the others are undervalued.
It's usually tough to know with darkside so you need a specialist to be sure.
