I keep everything you said, other than AU cents. I also have a 1941-1974 cent book, so I look for the best example for each date and mint in the book. I only have 1 empty hole, a 1973-S cent.
1/100 of an American dollar is a cent. It is NOT a penny. The word penny is used by several other countries, such as Great Britain, to denote their smallest denomination. In order to be numismatically correct, you must use the term cent to describe the American coin.

Only 46? That is relatively low percentage. I heard people are getting somewhere about 30-35% Cu in their findings. In Canada it's about 70-75%, but I only keep early coppers. Were 10 AU Zn or Cu?
