How similar is the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein to other coronavirus spike proteins?

Jennifer sent us this:

Can you please share with me the difference or similarities in the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and 229E, NL63, OC43, and HKU1 spike proteins? Are their similarities in their amino acid sequence that would allow the immune system to recognize them as the same?

Perhaps it's Too Late, & you already have all the information.
Still...for the Benefit of others...here it is.
