I'm going to ask a mod to move this to US coins.

It would really help us a lot if you made a separate post for each coin, showing each side, and letting us know what you think might be the error or at least the area where you suspect an error is.

Yea, less coins to figure back and forth for us old farts... The coins you're showing are all just standard fare circulated US coinages, with normal damage and wear. The discolorations are just staining of whatever elements they were exposed to. I see a couple with circular marks, those are coin wrapping or counting machine marks( could be vending machine), The group of cents are normal, color changes from yellow, to orange then darker brown like the worn/damaged 1990 cent. The cents since mid 1982 are "Zincolns", thin copper plated zinc core that have lots of problems, biggest being they rot, zinc corrodes quickly when exposed to elements.

I wouldn't mind seeing a close up of the 1979 Quarter obverse. Slight chance it might be a Lam.

I'm a bit dubious about it being coin wrapping or counting machine mark, as the mark has a tapering shape, and coin wrapping or counting machine marks are usually the same distance from the edge.
