I have about $150 of these, which in itself is an awesome gift. But I do not see much in the way of anything special about this series of coins as a whole. no errors that I could see.

These are tarnished dull, but could be cleaned up gently with warm distilled water and soap.
But is that even worth the time for these?

Better not to wash them! Some of them have silver! You could sell those or save them for their silver value!

Do Not Use Soap. 100% pure acetone and only if you have to. Check for errors and varieties https://www.coinsandcanada.com/

From 53 to 67, those are .800 silver in the alloy. Each face dollar contained .6 troy oz of Ag. With silver at $25.50 US just do the conversion. 25.50 X 1.35 = $34.40 Cdn and times 0.6 equals $20.60 Cdn per try oz. Each of your quarters would be worth a little over $5.00 CDN for full value, but a scrap silver buyer would probably only give you 85-90% of full scrap because none of the coins would weigh what they were when struck. Put them on kijiji or facebook as a lot and sell them.
