Answer
Hi Shannaray, Collector value of a coin depends on denomination (face value), date, mint mark (if any), number minted and condition of a coin, including amount of wear, any dents, scratches or cleaning as well as collector demand for it.
Cayman Islands 1990 Queen Elizabeth II (1952-) 10 cents, worth .10 to .50 depending on amount of wear and collector demand.
India 1 rupee 1996, .10-.60
Belgium 1972 5 Francs, .10-.50
Italy 1982 20 Lire, .10-.50
