1: Corroded
2: Damage/Parking Lot Coin
3: Fingerprint/Carbon Spotting
4: Damage

to the forum, and I'm sorry I don't have better news for you, but these coins have no added value and can almost be thrown back into circulation for a young/interested numismatist to find.

I'll give you my quick opinion -

1955D - PMD maybe environmental damage/corrosion
1939 - Maybe a lamination error on the right side of the coin with some PMD at places on the rim
1945 - looks like some staining, perhaps from sitting on an only cloth
1953 - PMD, road rash on reverse design maybe indicates a parking lot coin at some point in it's life.

The only possible error coin I see is the 1939 if it is indeed a lamination error. Let's wait for some of the local experts to ring in.

1939 looks like it has been smashed to me. Looks a little oblong on the right side. I say PMD.

1. Heated near a fire. PSD
2. Damaged in a garage probably with a vise. PSD
3. Looks like coin was stored in a bank bag for some time. (Note the straight lines on the reverse.) Collectable as a Wheat cent.
4. Smashed also with a hammer on a sandy surface. PSD

Lamination on the reverse of the 1925.
