Inherited some US-Philippines coins - Keeping? Or worth selling?
in Newbie Coin Collecting Questions

Hi All,
Thanks for allowing me to join this group. I recently inherited some coins from the Philippines and would like to know if they are worth anything, worth keeping? , and if I should clean them and how.
I’ve been reading up as much as I can. I started with the 10 centavo coins as I have quite a bit of them. I selected the shiniest ones (I am a newbie and attracted by anything shiny!) and do know these were minted in Denver as they have the D.
I took a close up of the one which I thought was the best of the five as it still had details of the shield at the back unlike the others.
P.S. I have the twenty centavos coins, a few 50 centavos and 27 pieces of the one peso coins (sadly, no 1906). What should I look out for in these coins in terms of which might be more valuable, scarce, etc?
