Not always easy to tell just from the reverse, but I'd hazard:
1884 - Fine
1918 - VG. Nice example of 'Ghosting'
1921 - Fine
1922 - Fair. Looks like the letters are just on the point of wearing into the field. Usually a weakly struck year.
1927 - Fine. The reverse used from 1927-36 wears quite differently from that used previously. It's unusual to find an 'average circulated' 1911-26 penny with all the lines on the shield intact, but it's unusual to find a 1927-36 penny with the lines worn off.

Reverse images are important to grade a coin accurately. Also, you'll get more replies if you show just one coin per thread.

You cannot accurately grade any without the
OBVERSE ( head or portrait side ) showing .
That said they are all just average circulated
Coins by the REVERSE photos shown .
