Welcome to CT , need to know the mint mark on the coins , also pictures of the reverse .

You would probably get better results if the bottom coins were done seperately , with larger pictures of both sides .

 

what's a mint mark? how is a coin graded by the way? I was just trying to get a ballpark figure. thanks.

 

MM = mint mark or the place it was made in , it would be the small letter under the eagle on the silver dollar , S,O , CC , no letter means Philidelphia .
Also the condition of the coin is very important , you should get a book on grading coins , like the Official ANA Grading Standards , a difference of 1 grade could be hundreds or thousands of dollars on rarer coins . Without knowing more I'd say you're top 4 coins are worth maybe $45 , but could be worth a lot more .

wow! that's so awesome! thanks! Just curious what mint mark would be the most expensive?

 

CC would be the most exspensive , but there are varieties for that year that are worth a good buck , like the reverse of 78 ,

 

cool. thanks so much. I'll look into getting a grading book.

 

One last thing, is there a trusted grading service? I don't want to have my coins graded only to find out I get another coin returned to me in the mail.
