look at the reverse of the quarters are there three stars below the eagle? if yes type 2 if no type 1. if you have a type one point out what picture it is and some can tell if it is a 1916 or not if theres enough detail

the reverse is what would tell you if its a type 1 or a type 2, if its a type 1 then we can move forward with a clear picture of the Obverse to tall you if its a 1917 or a 1916. a 1916 even without a date is worth quite a bit so that would be the best case scenario you are wanting.Your pictures would have to be in focus better for anyone to determine if its a 1916 or 1917 also because there are a few differences and it is almost impossible to make out with blurry pictures like the ones you have posted so far

The first one is a Type 1, and from the shape of the robe fold, the shield rivets and the detail of the walls, IMO, it's a 1917. The last 4 appear to be early Type 2s (Pedestal Date/the date rises up from the coin) and could be anything from a 1917 to a 1924. Clearer pictures might help but I think I'm pretty close.

I second the opinion of Moe, he is spot on with what I'm seeing. A 1917 Type 1 is always a good find.

As far as value, I'm guessing around $10-15. Still pretty even in that condition.

I kind of hesitated when I saw the first pic, but alas the rivets give it away,
1917 (what moe said)

There are rather crude ways to restore dates on silver coins using some rather nasty chemicals, but the results from the process are likely to be extremely disappointing. There is a lengthy thread somewhere on here showing how someone was finally able to figure out a way to restore the dates in a similar matter to acid dating nickels but the resulting coin didnt look to appealing if I remember correctly...
