Helvetia is the Latin name that the Romans gave to Switzerland area over 2000 years ago. The Swiss achieved an independent confederation of its cantons in 1291, and each canton was issuing its own coins until the unified coinage began in 1850. Main currency was a Swiss Franc. There were 100 rappen, or centimes, in one Swiss Franc.
There were 6.16 million of low grade silver 20 rappen coins minted in Strasbourg (BB) in year 1850 and its today's value may range from about $10 with heavy wear to around $100 with moderate wear to maybe $400 with light wear.
There were 920,000 of copper-nickel Swiss 5 rappen coins minted in year 1850 in Bern (B). It may currently be worth about $0.15 with heavy wear to around $0.50 with moderate wear to maybe $1.50 with light wear.
Collector value of each coin depends on date, mint mark (if any), number minted and condition of a coin, including amount of wear, any dents, scratches or cleaning as well as collector demand for it.

Helvetia coins from 1850 can each be worth about $4 in good condition. Coins in excellent condition can get a seller about $100, so two coins can get double these amounts if they are both in the same condition.
The Swiss franc hasn't been made of silver since 1967. The coin is worth face value, which currently converts to $2.26 in U.S. dollars.
