    They are worth at least a little bit more than face value, but not a lot. The Lincoln’s would look good in an album.

    3-5 cents each

    Variety vista would help you determine any double dies or mint mark varieties.

    In other words, they are not worth bothering with since the selling cost would exceed the amount you could realize.

    Sorry to say that you have nothing that has much value over face value, great for a circ album but really not much else.

    You should consider purchasing a copy of "A Guide Book of United States Coins" by RS Yoeman, published by Whitman (commonly called the Redbook). It's updated every year. The absolute values (retail values) aren't always accurate but it's very easy to get an idea which dates are common and which dates are worth keeping. It also has a very basic grading guide, specs, like weights, compositions, mintages, mm locations, etc. Well worth the $10-$15 cost

    FWIW: With this book, you could have looked up all these coins in less time than it took to take pics, crop, save, and post
