My two George VI coins!

Hi!

I have two 5 cent, very cool coins from the time of George VI. One is from 1945, and it has a large `V``along with a torch, the other is a commemorative coin celebrating 100 years of the RCMP, it has what I think looks like a housing district with three maple leafs on the front, if anyone could tell me the worth of these two coins, and also if you are interested in buying them for whatever they are worth, that would be great! :D

You had me a bit puzzled over your second Nickel when you said it was celebrating
100 years of the RCMP, that was in 1973 long after King George had died. Then
when you said it had a housing district with 3 Maple Leaves, I realised it was the
Commemorative Nickel coin you were referring to. (That is a nickel refinery, not a
housing district.)
To get back on track, condition of the coins dictate the value so unless they are in
uncirculated condition, there isn't much value in them. They might be worth about
50 cents each if they are in good shape and you can find a buyer.
