Does anyone have any clue what these various bills are and the value? I don't need them and was wanting to sell them here...

I picked these up at an antique shop in NC; apparently the owner's father was a WII vet and brought these back. I'm pretty sure I have an idea about type and value on Batch 2, but Batch 1 is somewhat of a mystery.

Your help greatly appreciated!

Batch two are one peso notes from the Japanese occupied phillipines, and I believe the top left hand one in batch one is a 50 sen military yen note

The lower large 10 is Korean bill, others are Japanese.
Those bills around 1940s.

Batch one top left is a Japanese 50 Sen note dated 18th year of the Showa Era i.e. 1943. The obverse pictures the Yasukuni Shrine where an number of great swordsmiths worked during the war. the reverse pictures Mt Fuji. Nice example javascript:insertsmilie('')
