OK; I see it and agree: Napoleon III; thanks
Edit: Silver .835; 5g, 23mm
I can't make out the mint mark on the obverse; there were three in 1868: "A" , "BB" and "K"
"A" and "BB" are common; "K" much rarer--only 22k minted versus in the millions for other two.

Placing a number next to each coin would make them easier to ID.

Yes, the coin I referenced; unfortunately, not yours. Their coin is described as: "Avec toute sa couleur d'origine, exemplaire splendide à fleur de coin" meaning "With all its original color; a splendid copy/uncirculated."

Hey there still beautiful. I will take them if you don't want them.

I will put the ID and values of each one, even if they were addressed already to have all the values in one place. The coins are organized by first to last picture, and top to bottom, left to right in each picture. You should try to dip the coins with green on them in acetone, or gently use a tooth pick (not sharp end). Where were these coins kept? It appears the green stuff could be due to it being held into or next to PVC. If you need help on IDs of any other coins, you can just PM me.
