Justinokay, first welcome to CCF. Second, we can give you our opinion in fake vs. real, but you make the job more difficult by taking a pic of multiple coins. Any possibility of picking one and posting close up pics of the obv, rev, and the edge?
Also, I'm going to recommend that the mods move your post over to an area where these sorts of world coins are more usually posted.

Without measures to compare..... I vote for fake one, bad denticles distribution, bad aspect of characters, edge appears to be rounded.Is it attracted to a magnet?
The two French IndoChina pieces (round hole) are probably real. They are worth maybe a quarter in that condition.
The cash coin (square hole) is fake. The large bumps in the fields (around the characters) were deliberately added to give the coins a cast look. Genuine coins are only worth a couple dollars, but these "feng shui" copies were sold in bulk for like 5 cents each. They show up in ebay lots ALL the time.
