Was wondering about some comms.

I was given these commemorative coins and don't know much about them. I was wondering if anyone could tell me their metal content, value and backround. Thanks!

This reference applies to the Paul Revere medal and perhaps the others.

These commems usually contained an ounce of silver and their value per coin today is about the same as the intrinsic value of silver--on any given day.
