They are all made out of petrified wood and pretty large in size.

Were they found as a Cache, as in all together in one spot, or are they random finds? If they're a Cache you could get more out them as a whole. If they're individual finds the three top ones would be worth maybe $100 to $200 each depending on size and workmanship. Hard to tell from that picture. The others below are just rough Blades, Scrapers, and Tools and really aren't that valuable unless you find a collector who collects these type Tools.
 

They were found all together in one spot. I think the top three are about 6 inches in length they are pretty large. The rest of them I am not sure exactly.
 

I would have them documented as a Cache and you would get more out it if you sold it at auction. Do you have the state and general area it was found in and by whom it was found?
 

Yeah I believe so, they were inherited from my boyfriends grandfather. How do we get them registered as cache?
 

Full retail on the ones that aren't damaged in my area (each) would be 10-25 each depending on the color. I can get them for 3-5 each from shows if you pick the rite seller. They all look like tools to me.
 

A couple of the pieces look like Tiger chert from Wyoming (I think the proper name is Bridger formation.) Not sure what state your finds are from, but if it comes from Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, or surrounding states it can be a pretty collectible material. A lot of paleo items are made from it.I'd love to see a larger picture of the items showing flaking, and some better actual measurements.Joshua
