The only thing unusual about "Syncronicity" is that dozens? of covers exist, with the colors used and arrangement of the colors varying. That said, it is a very common album that sold in huge numbers.
I don't see how any of those three would command more than a buck or two at an estate or yard sale.
BTW, I've looked at your linked webpage "Don't Judge an LP By Its Surface." Interesting comments regarding grading and use of digital transfer and restoration to improve a less than perfect record. I will often buy a relatively rare record in lesser condition, knowing that it will clean up dramatically with transfer to digital and use of "Click Repair." My general rule of thumb is that a record can improve one or two grades, e.g. from VG to NM with proper restoration of WAV files, assuming of course there's no extensive groove damage.
