    This looks like a Philly strike with an added mintmark

    It does seem thicker. Was a collection made in the 60s-80s these are all cc.

    If it is real, looks like it's polished.

    Doesn't have the look of an 89cc. Overdipped and processed, and as others said, an 89 with bogus mm.

    The style and placement of the CC mint mark does not look right.
    So I also suspect a Philadelphia coin with added mint mark.

    The 89CC is almost definitely fake.

    The others need better photos.

    I'm not exactly sure what you want us to do here.

    Sadly, that '89 CC...

    Same advice here, take them to a "trusted dealer" to have them checked out.

    Here is my 1889 CC for comparison if needed.

    From what I can see, I don’t think that’s a genuine 1889-CC. My best guess is that it’s a polished coin with an added mintmark.

    Try poking the mintmark, maybe it will fall off. You could also try some acetone to remove any glue that they might have used.
