Those are "standing liberty" quarters. Nice to find in change!

Worth .25 I assume ?
Worth way more than that. About $5 worth of silver. Depending on condition and mint mark, they may have numismatic value too.

Don't appear to have a mintmark. In about good condition, grade-wise. Worth about $13.00. The first minting in 1916 and part of 1917 had no stars below the eagle . With only 52,000 minted in 1916, they are worth around $1,800.00. Three stars appear below the eagle after 1917.

Nice find in circulation. Best I could do is a 1919 penny in my change today.

Nice find. Somebody apparently cleaned out the old change drawer or bottle. I have never found any of these.
