The first 2 coins from 1799 and 1875 are very poor counterfeits. They can be found for cheap typically overseas and a lot on ebay

There are hundreds of different coins that look exactly like the 1975 Queen Elizabeth. We'd have to see the reverse

The last one is a 1 Cent from the Straits Settlements

While there may be several coin types with this obverse design, they're all from just one country: the Isle of Man. This particular arrangement, with "Elizabeth the Second" and the date and without the word "queen", only appears on early decimal circulating Manx coinage. This coin, being cupronickel, has to be either the 5p or 10p.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis

You can clearly see the porous surface of the counterfeits.
