I think the 1 cent coins are the same coin but under different lighting? Its hard to tell but I believe it is a GR-803 normal date large rose bud.
The same goes for the 1/2 cent coins they are the same coin under different lighting? I believe it to be a GR-801a the 801a the last 1 in the date the left side of the foot turns downward as this coin looks to do this.
Grades I think they would grade f-vf
