#1,2,4 are ancient Chinese cash coins. The 3rd looks like a belly dancer token.

The third is some sort of Ottoman token. The obverse reads in Ottoman Turkish "sultan / Mahmud khan / may his victory be glorious". The reverse has "year 1857" at the bottom, which falls during the reign of Mahmud II. The upper portion where a mint name would normally be looks like jibberish.

2 could be Japanese not Chinese, and I would call either ancient.4 is probably 1875 to 1908- perhaps not the full range.
