#1 does look to be Corinth but I haven't been able to locate a this type in AE. The rest I have no idea could be some type of temple tokens.

No 2 is probably from India (a Satamana from the Mauryan Kingdom?), and no 4 looks Indian or even Ceylonese to my eye (maybe a stylized horseman with an inscription in Sanscrit), no 3 seems to have a Chinese character on it, but the rest of it looks like something from one of the Gallic tribes (which I doubt). These are merely guesses from vague memories - most unreliable. I will try to track down a reference and get back if someone else hasn't chimed in first.

No. 4 Looks like Negari script. Rajput dynasty? 1000-1400 AD maybe.
