Such as the 1st coin I posted out of the 4? Then in regards to the 1988 coin, there's smudged next to the mint Mark. Otherwise it would seem like a MS65 (unless I'm mistaken). I saw a similar coin being a MS66 and it too had minor scratches on it. Lastly am I wayyyy off to assume these are all ms65 or ms66 (excluding the beat down coin). Thanks for the feedback!

Given what been posted above, the mangled quarter is worth 25 cents. The remaining coins range from high very fine (FV+) to possibly low AU--25 cents each. Again, need better photos--preferably one coin per thread. I'm not seeing any coin--given the current images above--that cracks the MS grade threshold.
