Help! Errors?

Help! I have begun my journey into coin collecting and cherry-picking through the coins I already had saved up. I’m beginning to learn about the different errors and whatnot and was hoping for some help with these images I go and whether or not they are valuable and have “errors”

Those all are examples of post minting damage. The rings on the dime and quarter are most likely coin counters, Parking lots & tires explain the rest.
Edited to add The blobs on the quarter (wisdom) look like solder but MIGHT! Be little die breaks. still at that condition it’s worth face vale even as a oddity

Thank you for the book recommendation! I just recently purchased some others but will be adding this one as well!
You'll enjoy it!
Coins a Coinstar machine could not love.
I see a Redbook in your photos. A good sign to move forward in your collecting journey.
@Alicealias the book above is not real. There are real books on error coins and the minting process. Check the internet.

Wow …. Thank goodness I didn’t search for it yet 🤦♀️ now that I read the “Author” I can see that lol 😂 thanks for sparing me further
@Alicealias if you use the search feature and type "New redux" you shall find all the best reference sites. And they're all free. Good luck. Peace Roy

The circular scrape on the 1922 quarter is not from a coin counter. It's from the fingers? that crimp the ends of the paper roll after inserting the coins. I saw a lot of this when I was handling many bags of Ike dollars 15 years ago.
Yes you do.
Would this be considered a valuable doubled die coin and if so, roughly what would it be?
Machine doubling or strike doubling. Worth $1.25 retail.
I think you need more magnification. My eyes aren’t as good as they used to be.
