Apollo 11 (AS-506)
This was the first lunar landing mission and included the crew members Armstrong, Collins, and Aldrin. Mission Duration: approximately 8 days - 195 hr 18 min 35 sec. Moon rock sample mass returned: 47.8lbs
The Apollo missions brought back a total of 382 kilograms (842 pounds) of rocks and soil samples from the Moon.

Yes Apollo 11 brought back moonstones and the the other things used for experiments.
Astronauts, knowledge, and photographs (Apollo 8 did not land on the moon).
They brought back samples of moon sand and moon rocks.

PARTIAL ANSWER:Over 800 pounds of moon rock have been returned to earth but I'm not sure of soil samples which would add considerably to that number.
no probe has been able to actually bring back things to earth they are able to transmit data back to earth but not samples of rock and such, if your thinking of moon rocks then they were brought back in the Apollo missions in the 1960s
Core, rock, and regolith samples.
842 pounds (382 kg) combined total from all Apollo missions.
America, 840 lbs. The Russians brought back less than would fill a Coke can, and an additional 20 lbs. of Moon rock (severely damaged by Earth's atmosphere) was found on the ice in Antarctica, long after Apollo. In fact, it was only by comparison with the Apollo rocks that these scorched and melted rocks, damaged by Earth's atmosphere, the heat of entry, and the water in Earth's environment, were determined to be of lunar origin.
All of the missions that actually landed brought back moon rocks . These were the missions of Apollo 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17. The Apollo 17 mission was of particular importance geologically, because one of the astronauts, Harrison Schmidt, was a geologist.
Apollo 11 collected a variety of samples from the Moon, including about 47.5 pounds (21.5 kilograms) of lunar rocks, soil, and core samples. The astronauts also brought back moon dust and conducted experiments, such as deploying the American flag and setting up scientific instruments. These samples have provided valuable insights into the Moon's geology, formation, and the history of the solar system. The lunar samples are still studied today to enhance our understanding of planetary science.
