 to CCF. Can you post a few pics? Maybe someone here can tell. As far as restoring the date I am not sure. I know you can restore a date on nickel. Let's wait for a pro to chime in. Also there are certain characteristics to certain dates and mint marks that a SLQ collector would know. John1  EDIT: They do hold silver value. Edited by John1

you can tell if its a type 1 or a type 2 but it is probably going to be impossible to narrow down a specific date unless one of them is a 1916 or a 1917 type 1

Sadly, no one has found a good way to reliably restore the dates on these silver coins. You can tell a 1916 vs a 1917 if it is a type 1, and that is about it.

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)
