I found these inside an estate sale piece of furniture I bought, very old, can someone help me with the value? total of 4 coins and I put a lot of Pictures, the ones with holes in them are from some kinda weird material, not metal or copper, like Ivory.
Can someone give me a value?
Thanks

The first coins pictured are British. Unfortunately, they're too worn to have collector value. I would think that nicer examples are available for a nominal price.
As for the holed pieces, I'm not so sure that they are money.
The Newkirk, OK thing appears to be a 'seal' from the grange. One of those things where it would be pressed into melted wax on an envelope or document.
These are more interesting and fun things then they are valuable things......Cool finds though.....
Agree on the OKLA item. I was momentarily confused by it...."Must be Russian", I thought.
But after adjusting my brain, it's obviously in reverse, and must have been used for imprinting it's image in some manner. Wax makes sense.
Thank you guys so much
The ones with holes in them make me think of YAP coins but, I don't think YAP coins were ever made this small.
YAP coins were carved from limestone.
Wax seal, maybe, but I vote for it being half the die for an embosser, to emboss documents, etc.
Very possible.......
@salhi_amer.... Welcome aboard.... the old British coins are in such condition they are worthless. The holed items do not appear to be coins at all. The embossing face is interesting, but likely of no value unless you could find someone involved with the original group.... Cheers, RickO
Some very good things have come out of old furniture, so it's always worth asking.
