Any help is appreciated. Not my area of expertise. Are these Colonial half pennies? Value? Rarity?

From left to right, as far as I can tell:

- George III, British type
- George II, British type, very worn
- same as previous, but slightly less very worn
- George III, Irish type (Hibernia)
- Virginia colonial

The two George II halfpennies appear to be so worn that the date is illegible; on the two George III non-colonials, the dates are probably legible, but I can't pick them out from the photos.
Neither of those four is likely to have much value.

Note: not my area of expertise either (which is why I didn't mention anything about the Virginia coin except that it is one).

Looks like the last one is a Virginia Halfpenny.

Here's a really good place to look.
