I've heard someone say "Here's my one" instead of "Here's mine". Is the former grammatical? It seems like it's a shortcut for "Here's one that is mine".

It isn't a very common usage but it would technically be grammatically correct.
The last two examples sound very strange to my ear and I would never use them. But I am unaware of a rule that dictates they are improper.
