I rate them nice old coins that would look great in an album. Especially mine if you are giving them away.

I like your Liberty head nickel.
I could love it with that finger print and weak strike reverse.
It's hard to grade from that pic so I'll just take a WAG at AU58
Edit to say it looks cast

So did you buy any real coins recently?

by jove messy, whatever do you mean
Did you get three sets of chop-sticks ?
Very nice!
They look fake to me.
I am here for the givaway! Count me in.
interesting mix of responses.
i made them clickable so you can look them over a little closer.
I agree, No grade Counterfeit
Indian and V nickel definitely fake.
Large cent probably fake; guilty by association.
With six you get egg roll!
New idea for Dansco..... a 7070C for a counterfeit type set.
Look at the tops pf the letters UNITED ST
Right. I knew the coin looked "off" but couldn't place my finger on my suspicion.
The IHC and the V nickel definitely look fake. The large cent could also be fake if it came from the same place.

3 coins, 3 sources.
The Large Cent might fool some people ... the other two should not fool anyone who is paying attention.
My 2c anyway

That's because they are fake.

The rev of the 5c looked really bad; the IHC overall mushy but I really don't know about the large cent.
Look at the denticles on the reverse of the large cent, and notice the irregular spacing.

The three stooges, dates all look bad just for starters.

Not as sure as the first three, thought the IHC was ok but then that MM looks different. Are they new or older fakes?

best as i can tell is this:
1 - new
2 - ? - somewhat new perhaps. looks artificially toned to me.
3 - new
4 - new
5 - new
6 - ? - probably new
imo the dates on 1-5 are dead giveaways, espeically once you do a side-by-side. if not for the date, most of these i'd call above average. you can tell they had no-date dies and punched dates into working dies from a no-date master die/hub.
these are nowhere near what burfle usually posts but better than most of what you see from alibaba.
there are a couple decent counterfeit tracking sites but can't recall the names. black cabinet?, there is a yahoo one too i believe.
good job picking up on the mm for the 09-s. dates and mm are prime areas to focus on for counterfeit detection until you get into a better class than these.
I have seen that exact IHC counterfeit type before. The date is the giveaway, though nothing about it is very good. These are unfortunately very prevalent. A favorite trick of people who resell these on ebay was to pretend they are ignorant of the 'L' and sell it as a 64 bronze. Greedy buyers will chomp on them. Less prevalent nowadays but still see it from time to time.

Cool counterfeits, a type set of them is a cool idea...
My YouTube Channel
I see two options:
1) as many people here that have shown (cheap) interest you could try the “buy, swap or sell” section...never know.
2) send them ATS
