Lower left coin looks like a two "sous" coin from the French Colony of Cayenne.

Small coin with a cross (next to big 'silver') is a 2 'rappen' from Switzerland, minted between 1850 and 1941; made of bronze and measuring 20mm in dia. --as here:

1944 fifty centavos red book said it was silver worth about $1.50

Definetly 3 down, the 2 sous is a 1789.

Top row second one is a souvenir token of the National Day-July 14, 1886 as seen here: http://74.125.93.132/translate_c?hl...=UTF-8&usg=ALkJrhjhoR6-M-aNABqZdRNRtt8nFbhQdA

In France National Day is 14 July and is known as the Fête nationale (only outside France is it called Bastille Day), per Wikipedia

yup that one looks like someone filed the loop off it on the top, to make it look like a coin

Good catch, Tex:
Its a copper-alloy Nuremburg jetton, struck by Kilian Koch (Chilianus Coquus: Chilia Koch) at Nuremburg in 1587 AD; Mitchiner no. 1456 (1988, p. 425).

Better scan of the remaening 3.
the top right has a date of 1607 I can make our ALBERTVS I cant make out much more than that but it has more words on front and back.
The one on the left, Is pretty clean it has the Royal coat of arms on the one side, and some kind of crown and shield on the other side wit a wreath

Not necessarily so. There are thousands and thousands of jetons in existence. Crusader might be able to help you on this one--if he has a book on them. My advice is to PM him.
