From what I can see, only the first one is worth saving because it is a Wheat penny. Doesn't look like the doubled die, but I cant tell from the pics. Spend the rest, its all just PMD (post mint damage) from what I can see. |

I know it would be a little work but you probably have one post for each coin. Take good pictures and tell us what you think you have or where on the coin you think something is an error/variety. You will get the most help that way.

 PMD for most of them, but if you think any are errors, we need better pictures |

When you look at a coin and can clearly see it is mutilated or scraped, it is not a collectable item.
Damaging a coin never adds to the value, it only takes away.

Trust me, I have learned from this site, you will get excellent advise if you fully explain what it is about your coin, you need help with.

On the 1955 you can see where the 55 looks doubled, but it is caused by die wear/die deterioration. Die wear/deterioration enlarges the coins devices toward the rim area. Keep in mint the 1950's wheat cents suffered a lot of abuse as they worked long after normal die retirement. During this era a lot of strange stuff showed up during that time period. Some we selling these as the "So Called" poor mans doubled die. A good name as if that was all you collected and paid extra for these, you would be the poor man. They are just die wear that some (and still do sell on ebay) sell as a collectable. But are not worth a premium. They are very common find.  Note overall die wear on all devices? |

Not that it's very valuable, but isn't the 1960 a small date?
