First, I would go to the nearest library and try to find a catalogue such as one by Charlton that shows the current estimated value of the coins.
If that is not possible, look on eBay and see if anyone is posting rare Canadian coins and see what the bids are for these. Be careful, because if your coin is not exactly the same as the one they are advertising, there can be quite a big difference in the value. (Example: A 1930 US penny may be worth only $60, while the 1931 penny may be $190 and it is a year newer.)
You can also contact your insurance company and tell them about the coins. Ask them if they could determine the value of the coins so you can make sure that they are adequately insured. For example, if you had an 1860 US silver dollar that had an estimated value of US$4000, you may want to add that to your home insurance so you don't lose that money in a burglary or fire.
Finally, you can go to a hobby shop that specializes in coins and see what they would offer you for the coins. What the coins are worth, and what retailers will pay for them are often quite a bit different value.

As exchange into suggested already take them on your interior reach coin broking, banks have not got any theory what collector funds are nicely worth. it is not their interest to nicely known except a guy or woman working there's a collector. I truthfully have discovered via the years, few that paintings in banks convey jointly funds. it particularly is a wierd accident yet, I merely offered some New Brunswick cents from a broking right here in New Hampshire they have been in his, what's called junk container.I have been given very lots on them. possibly there's a coin club on your section, they could help.

A coin shop ...a bank will only give you face value for them
or find out local coin auctions

Your best bet is to take them to a coin shop not bank.

Good morning. What part of New Brunswick are you? I am always buying coins to add to my boys' collections. I live just north of Bouctouche and may be interested. E-mail me from my profile or give us a call 743-8463. Thanks and have a great day.
