I have 3 tokens that do not appear to be anything I can attribute.
1-Japanese or Chinese? - appears with dragon on one side with Kimono parsol girl on other. Very nice motif-someone liked it so much, they holed for jewelry. 20 mm, nickel, high releif no date, no idea what it is.

2-French - appears with French words but 5 cents. on one side and some individual with date 1921 Perpignan - has a individual holding a cross and there is a halo, communion token? Aluminium, about 21 mm - I know in France after WWI they were short of currency and Tokens were issued for francs and centemies, maybe that is cent...

3) Spanish - Peru - Valparaiso - red and thick, plastic, about 23 mm states: Primera, other side is blank but someone try using a needle to start something a name? This token makes me think of a Meat token but why would anyone try to make it into Jewelry, hole it and wear it around your neck?

No. 2 is a French Monnaies de Nécessité issue, similar to German Notgeld of the same period.

This link will tell you more (but it's in French)
