My humble grade opinions based on what I can see in the photos ...

Cleveland

The coins surfaces do not appear to be original to me ... likely polished to acquire the unusual shine I observe.

Circulation wear is present ... look for example on the reverse on the long arm of the engineers compass ... on the obverse the cheek, jaw and temple of Moses Cleaveland.

AU50-details (cleaned)

Stone Mountain

Original surfaces AU55 example ... nice. Strike is a bit weak ... but not distracting from this tremendous coin.

Grant

Genuine (start there) ... there have been many counterfeit Grant showing up lately from the Chinese coin factories.

Your example Yotie has original pleasing circulated surfaces ... I grade XF40.

I say again ... nice coins and I hope you continue to pursue the wonders to be found in the classic silver commemorative set.

You got some deal. Good for you. Do you care to share your source? (Just kidding!)

Great deal!! I'm currently looking for a stone mountain and Lexington/Concord that "fits my taste", lol.... And now that you've shown me the Grant its now added to my list too... We need a smiley for spending $! Lol, like a face throwing a wad of cash... Although you got an excellent deal IMO!
For grades I completely agree with nickelsearcher,
AU-50 (cleaned)
AU-55
XF-40
Great coins! Thanks for sharing!!

Is the reverse of the Grant commemorative coin
shown that of the Grant home in Galena, IL.?

Nope - it's the Grant home in Point Pleasant, OH. now a museum.
