Wrong forum.

I am no expert though but I would imagine they are worth feck all.
They are not rare. I have loads of old coins, one is a penny from 1896 if I remember right.

The value depends largely on the condition of the coins.

Try this page for info. on Irish coin values (retail values rather than
what you could expect to get selling to a dealer):

Coins that date to 1916 are not old through any stretch of the imagination.

More than likely they're completely worthless.

And between 1916 and 1928 they can't even be Irish!
