European Coin Question

I haven't been actively collecting coins in a while, but I recently was given a group of coins from Germany, France, and Italy. Most of the coins are from 50's-80's and I'm guessing that they're probably all common coins. Does anyone know if there are any short printed coins that I should be looking for within the group (about 30-40 coins)? Any info would be helpful. Thanks.
Looking for tobacco cards (T206, etc), 1960 Topps cards, autographs, dvds, coins, plus more

    Short printed?? You mean low mintage?
    Collector value of a coin depends on date, mint mark (if any), number minted and condition of a coin, including amount of wear, any dents, scratches or cleaning.
    The Standard Catalog of World Coins (you can also try a library) is the general reference guide.
    Welcome to the group!

    Some of the German 1, 2 and 5 mark coins from the 1950s can be valuable in high grades, especially in mint condition.
