Hamilton Type - Help identifying the type, and what it’s worth?

Hello, I have three drawers of type. With apparently 2 complete sets.
Alphabet on one drawer, numerals on the other.
And a smaller point with complete set on sight.

I’ve verified on the A’s that they are Hamilton type.

They seem complete and not very much used.

What typefaces are these? And how much are they worth?

Thank you.

PS: I flipped them for easier recognition.

Ok. I realized that briarpress resizes the images and that this scans should help more.
