I am on iPhone and I cannot upload images is there a way I can send an image to people of expertise?
If not here is the descriptions:

First one: rectangle shape, name at top is Hermann v. Helmholtz and he is facing right.
on the back it looks like a gravestone with a lady holding a wreath on it.

It has the date of 1894 at the bottom of the gravestone.

Second one: large round token. It says pius Ix pont max with picture of Pius. On reverse side it has some sort of shield and Latin writing. "ecclesiae praesidium et dulce decus libertatis publicae vindex et assertor civium amans pater totius orbis deliciae et spes optima.

Dilectus deo et hominibus gujus memoria in benedictione

Third: Franz josef I and Wilhelm II both looking left, overlapping. Reverse: two naked men fighting a snake creature with many heads. It says: ein ende aller tucke.

the second one seems to say


Quote:
"ecclesiae praesidium et dulce decus libertatis publicae vindex et assertor civium amans pater totius orbis deliciae et spes optima.


The church protects and honors the liberty of people and is the protector of the status of the city like an affectionate father of the entire word luxurious? with hope and health
