First, I would go to the nearest lbriary and try to find a catalogue such as one by Charlton that shows the current estimated value of the coins. If that is not possible, look on eBay and see if anyone is posting rare Canadian coins and see what the bids are for these. Be careful, because if your coin is not exactly the same as the one they are advertising, there can be quite a big difference in the value. (Example: A 1930 US penny may be worth only $60, while the 1931 penny may be $190 and it is a year newer.)You can also contact your insurance company and tell them about the coins. Ask them if they could determine the value of the coins so you can make sure that they are adequately insured. For example, if you had an 1860 US silver dollar that had an estimated value of US$4000, you may want to add that to your home insurance so you don’t lose that money in a burglary or fire.Finally, you can go to a hobby shop that specializes in coins and see what they would offer you for the coins. What the coins are worth, and what retailers will pay for them are often quite a bit different value.
Go on ebay and do an “advanced search” and chosoe to only search for “completed listings only”. Look at the recent prices it sold for on ebay. A coin is only worth what someone else is willing to pay for it.
