Like other high grade moderns Pf 70 Ikes initially traded for thousands but after more were graded prices dropped as might be expected. Note that there really are a small number of those Pf 70's that are flawless but most I've seen have visible flaws without magnification which is likely the reason prices dropped. Uncirculated Ikes however are rare in MS 67 grades especially the dates where no mint sets were made those years. The 1971 Philly comes to mind as virtually unknown in MS 67.

Welcome to the forum, we would need far more information and photos of the coin in question to answer your question.   Eisenhower dollars (commonly called Ikes) were made from 1971 through 1978 with different designs, different metal compositions, and different methods of manufacture.   It would also be very helpful if you would provide the source of your information, "they" could be anyone with access to the internet.

You tube is full of click bait videos that are designed to misinform people or hype super rare errors to get views.   From your photos none of the coins you have is worth more than the face value of $1   There are a very small handful of valuable Ike dollars due to those coins being mint errors or because those coins are in superb condition.   All the coins you have provided photos of are just normal coins that were used in commerce and are in far less than superb condition.

Go look at you tube (10 most valuable Eisenhower dollar)

As the others have said DO NOT believe anything you hear about coins on YouTube, unless the videos come from a reputable numismatic organization like NGC, PCGS, ANACS, the PNG or the ANA.  Coin-wise, YouTube is a hive of liars and sensationalists that will say anything to create click bait in order to increase the numbers of viewers they get.  But it doesn't change the fact that these people are liars and frauds.  Definitely stay off of YouTube when looking for good coin information.  Signing up here at NGC is a good step forward in getting better coin information.

Depends what you like to collect, and what your ultimate goals are. No one can answer that question without knowing those things.

Ok then what cion that r worth money then 

Are you just looking for coins that are worth money in order to make a buck, or do you actually want to collect coins?  That's an important thing to know going forward here.

Howdy. Round here those are known as “dryer coins “. Seems the dang things get caught in the dryer on spin cycle and wind up looking just like that. Seen several over the years. 
Theres a lot of people trying to make money with coins. People who first study and view many many coins in hand. I collect and that requires study and viewing many many coins in hand ( or video and books). Knowledge is power.   I can afford silver and tokens, or other collectibles under $100. But that doesn’t mean I don’t study gold and classic issues. 
Think about how much you can afford and build your collection accordingly 

If you’re interested in selling, it’s going to take time to learn.  The most important thing I’ve learned is “collect what you like “  Enjoy  James 😸

In US change, you should just get the Red Book. That will tell you which coins are the most valuable (and that you will therefore virtually never find in pocket change). The idea that there's retirement money in the cash register is not supportable, because if there were, I would already have done it by now and would be living in Gaoth Dobhair with a nice view of the North Atlantic. Sometimes it seems like the world thinks America is this place where any time you want something, you just pick up gold nuggets off the ground (the small ones the really really rich people couldn't be bothered with, like one ounce and below) and turn them in for dollars.
