    £10 - Ten pounds (Punt) dated 02-07-99
    £5 - Five pounds (punt) dated 16-01-97

    silver Coins:

    Two Dublin centenary issue 50p coins dated 1988 with dublin seal
    One £1 Millennium coin 2000 with boat and oars design?
    Three £1 coins dated year 2000
    Two £1(punt) coins dated year 1994 & 1998
    Mixed collection 5p,10p(2 sizes),50p coins
    One 6d coin dated 1964 & one 3d coin dated 1964

    Copper coins:

    Thirteen 1968 1d coins
    One 1940 1d coin
    One penny dated 1945

    Three 1p coins dated 2000
    Three 1p coins dated '85, '90', '96

    It's all about condition, but assuming what you have is of average circulation wear, I don't see anything there of value in the coins, except the 1940 1d and 2 farthings. About 5 Euro per coin. The rest of the coins are worth little over their face value.

    Someone else might fill you in on the notes, but unless they're in unused or there abouts condition, I doubt they'll be worth a whole lot over their face value.
