The top two coins on the left are probably worth about $5 each, the others probably about $1 each.
Coins from all of those rulers are very common, with millions of coins surviving.
It is possible, but highly unlikely, that one or more of the coins could be worth more. There are dozens or hundreds of varieties of coins with a range of values for each of those rulers, but pictures of the other side would be needed to fully identify the coins. (Don't take the coins off the paper to take pictures. It's probably worth more as a set than the individual common coins would be.
