Strange coins found in an old trailer park in Florida and near a bridge in IL

OK here are some strange coins that I have found. the roman copy looking ones I found at an old railroad bridge in northern Wisconsin. The trestle is (or was) over the Rock River near South Beliot. My father took me fishing there and I used his "BFO" detector while he fished for catfish.

The Chinese looking one I found in an older trailer park in Bradenton, FL that was torn down and all the trailers removed.

The silver one is aluminum. I found that in Rockford IL at the old middle school (Marshall Middle) before it was made into a city building. Unfortunately I still used a sharp knife to pinpoint and it shows it.

The last one says One Cent and looks like a lawn mower ate it. It was also in the old trailer park.

Any ideas as what these actually are?

Bah I was writing Northern IL when I realized that the trestle was actually in Southern Wisconsin. And the blonde in me forgot to replace North for South :( Sorry for any confusion the trestle is in Southern Wisconsin right near South Beliot.

That same day...well night, my dad left his tacklebox next to the road. So someone found a nice treasure that night too:P
