Some of the larger/older ones look a bit questionable, and generally once they are as old and degraded as the ones in the third photo, they aren't worth picking (IMO).. The majority of what you have found are Psilocybe subaeruginosa, but there are some that are difficult to distinguish from your pics.
All of the mushrooms in the last two pics are P. subaeruginosa, but all of the other pics have some questionable ones. The individual ones you are holding up also appear to be P. subaeruginosa.
For next time, it is generally considered good practice to use scissors to cut the mushrooms as it creates less of an impact on the mushroom 'roots' (mycelium) and it means your patch should last longer which is good for you!

pretty much this. mostly Psilocybe subaeruginosa
there is a point at which older mushrooms become harder to identify via photos. some of those older bigger ones may be subs but are that much harder to ID.
Additionally the older ones pose as potential health risks as they may have started rotting.
