Greetings to all, I'm new to the forum.

These coins and a currency-note were given to me by my grandparents to encourage me to start a coin-collecting hobby but I never initiated it. Would be nice to get input from more seasoned fellow members.

The 5 Shillings Note is the value item in this lot.
Perhaps $100 + or - $50, depending on condition.

The first coin is India - British East India Company, one quarter anna, Bombay presidency, 1830/AH1246, KM#231.1, Krause book value as of 2013 maybe in the ballpark of $40 (I would grade this as approximately VG condition). Please keep in mind that coins often sell for far below book value, but this is a nice and somewhat rare and valuable coin.

The fifth coin is India - British colonial, one quarter anna, 1835, KM#446.1, Krause book value as of 2013 (condition approximately G) about $1.
