LOL, Yea a huge TYPO! Thanks! LOL
 

It's always difficult to grade coins from photos. The Morgan appears legit. No reason for someone to counterfeit a common date WL, a worn one at that! Same for the last coin. Best way to get values is to look at finished auctions on eBay.
 

The Silver dollar is a GSA dollar. The government gathered up the left over silver dollars and sold them to the public in those cases. It is uncirculated. I would say the Obverse is about a 60 or 61. the reverse is a 63 or 64. Price as a 61, for 1884cc about $200 to $210. Remember that most dealers will offer you between 50% and 75% of that price if you want to sell it. They need to make a bit of money, and that's how they do it.

The others are real and worth their silver value or a touch more...
 

They all look legit, but, I'd test them with a magnet anyway. As mentioned, the walking half is a common date and worn, so, no premium.....just 90% silver value + a touch for being a walker. You would need to have the coin in hand to give it an accurate grade, but, the ones mentioned seem reasonable.
 

Thanks for all the help. I am taking them to a coin guy that said he can help me figure it out after he sees them in person. He is a friends Brother in Law and he knows I am not selling so he will be honest. Here are some others I got in this group. Check em out. Thanks again to all of you.

You had found some nice coins in the ground.

Unfortunatly these were not found while detecting, but left to us by family. But thanks for looking.
