The writing is a bit difficult to see from here. If you can get shots a bit closer it would help.

 

I added some closer up photos - hopefully that helps.

 

Some I can make out, others are too corroded for my eyes, here is what I come up with. Wait for more experienced members in this field to weigh in.

first row

1) can't tell
2) Ch'ien Lung (1736-1795 AD), Ch'ing dynasty
3) can't tell

second row

1) Ta Ting (MAYBE, can't be sure), Chin dynasty (1115-1260 AD)
2) can't tell

third row

1) Ch'ien Yuan (756-762 AD), T'ang dynasty
2) Cheng Lung (1156-1161 AD), Chin dynasty

Values? In that condition, I don't think much. But I've never looked at prices on these. Also I couldn't comment on the authenticity, perhaps someone else will know.

Hope that helps.

 

Anyone else able to provide some input? I know they are in bad shape, but any ideas on its value? Thanks!!
