Great assortment! I remember as a kid in the NYC subway system scowering the area for tokens like the one on the left, either that one or the ones with a little pentagon shaped hole in the center. Pretty sure the turnstiles back then had a coin return slot in them as I vaguely remember checking them and finding tokens inside occasionally. That big token on the right was just for toll booths, there was a metal hopper that looked sort of like a rectangular colander you would throw it in and then an arm bar would open.
 

Silver is beautiful! Congratulations on all your cool finds. Thanks for sharing.
