    Welcome to the forum michael.

    Except for silver nickles during WW II, coins produced at the Philadelphia Mint had no mintmarks until 1980, so that's where your Mogans came from.
    No way to tell without seeing pictures. BTW "good" is the specific grade for very heavily worn coins that are barely identifiable, so hopefully your Morgans are not "good".
    Again, we need pictures. You may have "slabbed" coins, graded by either a reputable or bottom-feeding third party grading service; or you may have coins in any of a dozen or more types of containers.

    Without pictures there's no hope of getting a valid value opinion beyond the basic information that your coins are worth somewhere between $4.50 (roughly their bullion value) and some tens of thousands of dollars.

    You can use any photo program to resize the pics - sometimes they call it Compress instead of resize. You can even use Microsoft Paint to resize pics - and any computer with Microsoft Windows has that program. Just open Paint - then open your pic - and resize it.

    I don't see the word "compress" anywhere in my microsoft paint. Where exactly does it say that? Thanks!

    Hate to be a pain but can you post a picture of the back of the coins? Its pretty important, we need to know if there are mint marks on them. Also, could you post a picture of the 1936 set?

    Paint does not use Compress - some of the photo editing software does though.

    To resize an image in Paint - once you open the pic in Paint, then click on the Image button at the top left of the screen. Then when the drop down box opens - click on Stretch/Skew. This will open another small window where you will see Horizontal & Vertical listed - usually with 100% highlighted in small boxes. Just change that 100% to whatever size you desire - say 75% or 50% then click on OK and the pic will be resized ;)

    Based on the obverse pics only - about $7 or $8 each.

    Those prices sound about right.

    Does the 1904 look doubled? Look at the outline of the face and the date. I don't know.

    It could be - but would need better pics to tell. I doubt it would matter much value wise though. But it would make a neat collectible ;)

    Actually it looks like a shadow from the light.
