Looks like you've found some Psilocybe Subaeruginosa which is clear in the first picture.... The wavy caps of the other ones could indicate a variant or be the product of the substrate they were growing on. Be careful though, you may have some different ones in the mix.

Also, don't rip out the mushrooms - pinch them off above the base or cut them with scissors. Ripping them out means you take the mycellium with them which can stop the patch from fruiting again.

thanks..they were found in a very moist part under shrubs. so little unlight can get to them....they are very moist...the wavey caps were growing with the round caps...just close by i also found ones that looked to be similar but not as moist wit the more round cap but they had red on the stems.and the slight mold growing on the cap....so i figured they were no good...

Bloody marvellous then. I added that cautionary remark just so you'd be safe and so I don't get yelled at for jumping to a conclusion over a picture; although subs are very easily identified just by looking at them when you know wot to look for.
I heard somewhere that subs are possibly the second most potent active mushroom currently known. I think the first was found somewhere in Europe.

I think Psilocybe Azurescens was ranked number 1 in potency. However i remember reading a report from someone who had bioassayed both Azures and Subs and commented that he found them to be of equal potency.

Umm, that "Mold" you were talking about... was it at the base of the stipe, growing underneath the soil that the shrooms came from??? If so, it's mycellium. I have recently seen a lot of this "mold" throughout woodchip piles, it is a good sign, and should not discourage you one bit 
Happy tripping my friend! You have quite a ride ahead of you.
