The second label seems to be a slab for a "Zhi Ping Yuan Bao" one-cash cash coin from the North Song Dynasty. It is 23.7mm in diameter and weighs 3.4g. I can't help with the other two.

If these are slabbed coins, I may be of more use to you if you post pictures of the coins.

The first label: First 4 characters is the name of the company. The last sentence can be regarded as a slogan to promotion the activity of the company - a paradise for arts auction and investment. They are all simplified Chinese characters, that is, this is a firm in Mainland China.
The third label said there is a coin/note auction in Guangzhou on the date shown at the bottom. CMC is a firm for coin and note authentication, I think it is a Chinese-based firm.

Thanks! I had bought these for my slabs collection from a Hong Kong based seller who often has cool, oddball stuff. So it's more about the slab than the coin... except I don't speak/read a word of Chinese... Thanks! Slab#1  Slab#2  Slab#3

Someone slabbed a 2014 1 yuan coin. Wow, I have loads of those, shiny. I have 2015 too. In fact I have the whole set in some form or other, making another one, missing a few coins. 1 yuan is worth like 15 US cents. Not worth putting into a slab at all.
Of your last photos, the last one says China International (Zhongguo Guoji) something I can't read and then Shi, which is city.
Then it says Guangzhou and three characters I can't read.
The one above that I can read some characters but not enough to give you meaning.

#20013;#22269;(China)#22269;#38469;(International)#38065;#24065;(Coins) #65288;#24191;#24030;#65289;(Guangzhou)#23637;#38144;#20250;(Coin Fair) I have no say of the second coin as I don't collect these ancient coins. I think they are more easily counterfeited. I agree with Augsburger, the other two coins are not rare (I suppose), they are not worthy to be slabbed. That's really waste of money and plastic materials. I am willing to translate any coins with Chinese characters. Just put them here. Henry

May be the system does not support Chinese characters in the forum, I post the Label 3 with explanation.

Hey, I was right with the second one! The coin in that slab is relatively cheap and is most likely genuine.

You guys rock - thank you so much... Back in the day when PCGS and NCG and the rest were just starting out, they slabbed Roosevelt dimes as samples... In those days, a postage stamp cost 25c. 1 Yuan is probably about the same - easy to obtain and inexpensive.
