I'm a little north of New York so I can't help much but I would agree that the pictures here aren't really anything we can use to identify anything with. I could list a bunch of green stones but at this point you'd pretty much be putting them on a dart board and throwing darts blindfolded and you'd get about as accurate results unfortunately.
If there's a jeweller that is willing to do it for free then you could try them out but a loupe by itself wouldn't be enough to identify all the different stones it might be unless there's a really easy thing to see like the green mica plates in aventurine quartz or something similar. It looks like one is unmounted so you could try to get a scale and make a SG machine to at least give you a better idea but otherwise I'd definitely recommend bringing/sending it to someone if you're interested in getting a positive ID.

Thank you.: I learned a lot from reading your informative post. In particular, it is helpful to know that using a loupe probably would not be enough to identify the stones.
