1. Appears to be a token of some sort. No denomination makes me think that. Possibly from one of the German states.
2. Souvenir token from France.
3. Switzerland 2 Rappen
4. 1944 Philipines 50 Centavos. it is .750 Silver should weigh 10.0g

The other ones I cannot find.

Hope this helps

The first one in the bottom row is a 1789A 2 sous from French Guiana (On the northern coast of South America)

Obverse: A crown surmounts three fleur-de-lys Legend: Louis XVI . R . DE FR ET DE NAV .

Reverse: (Within a circle), 2 sous 1789 A Legend: COLONIE DE CAYENNE (with a LYRE)


I found one of these at an old tavern site that was in pretty poor shape. It took a while for me to ID it!
