Would you say I’m getting ripped off ?

I would say you were holding two Chinese fakes at worst, and one fake pattern trade dollar and one very overpriced Morgan dollar at best.

Oops, missed the first three coins. Those all look fake, too.

 

OK, my post is confusing, even to me, so let me rephrase it:

The coins are fake. Run away as fast as you can.

How can you tell

Let's just take the J1315 Trade Dollar pattern as an example.

Here are two sets of pictures. The first is the genuine article, which is rare (picture from USPatterns.com). The second is a fake from China, available for about 5 bucks, including shipping. You tell me which one resembles your coin more.

If you bought those then yes you allowed yourself to be ripped off.   I say allowed because there is more than enough information on every one of those coins that had you done any research before buying it should have been very obvious that all of these are fake.  If you can return them then I would recommend that you do so before the day is out.
