potential P. semilanceata in Oregon

My friend sent me this picture of some mushrooms he found today in liberty cap habitat. The habitat is pasture land near the coast. I think they look like potential liberty caps although i told him to hold off until i can see them in person.
Here is the picture taken today on 8/26/13

Any opinions on the species in the picture? I think they could be strange looking semilanceata but wanted to see some more pictures or see them in person first. I am going to check all my semilanceata spots tommarow and hopefully i find something good.

My friend is a beginner and likely doesnt know how to check for a pellicle. Im going to check these suckers out thoroughly in person tomorrow and i will definately update. Hopefully with alot more pictures and my own personal finds.

Mostly pans. there is what i call "Panaeolus papilionaceus var. papilionaceus". but its not right, its those weird close pileus looking pans. almost like the "Panaeolopsis. Ill get it in a few just forget it,,.
But yes i think the mushroom which is facing down is Psilocybe semilanceata

The other close capped ones are dubious looking.

The one that resembles a Panaeolopsis did stand out to me as something else.
Not sure about the big one either, its kind of beaten up although i have found them with similar size and shape.
The one between the pointer and middle finger looks promising to me. Hygrophanous and nipple looks promising.
Also, If there is one there is sure to be more Hopefully they are popping up further inland because most of the patches ill be checking tommarow are 20-30 miles further inland than where these were found. Although if it comes down to it ill be searching the same fields where these were found.

I'll say except from that one, all are probably liberty caps. Note the purplish brown spore deposits on the upper part of the stem on the beaten big one, as well as the striate margin.

The only mushroom that is not P. semilanceata in OP's post would not have left a spore print because it was picked when it was a pin.

Unfortunately i did not find any in any of my spots today. It was too hot and dry inland but i think they will be coming soon. Very disapointing.
It wasnt all a failed trip though, i found a paper bag full of chantrelles and traded half for some alder logs plugged with shiitake.
