Hi Cher,
Thank you for your question.
None of the dates listed are considered rare.
In average condition :
The 1910 is worth about 25 cents.
The 1926 is worth about 5 cents.
The 1943 steel/zinc cents are worth about 5 cents each.
The rest are worth about 2 cents apiece.
I hope this helps,
Dan

Expertise
My strong familiarity with all U.S. Mint coins, extensive reference library, and close relationships with many other dealers allows me to identify just about any coin made in the USA. I receive regular updates to all the current price guides -- both wholesale & retail -- to provide accurate values. So, with a good description or pictures, I should be able to identify and value any U.S. coin you have.
Experience
I've been a coin dealer since the 1980's and a coin collector since the 1960's. I specialize in U.S. Silver Coins and have an active online website -- The Working Man's Rare Coins -- http://www.workingmancoins.com -- offering information and inventory in U.S. coins.
