What are those two at the bottom (separated from the others)? Never seen them in a Mexican coin lot.

Are they coins, tokens, or some kind of coin-looking trash?

That's what I thought but aren't they too small? Looks like the approximate diameter of a 20 centavo piece.
What fractions of those are there?

I haven't won it, it's just started and I'm wondering what is offered here.

So we'd assume these are the two smallest ones? I may ask the seller for a more detailed photo of those.

Also, is there a double onza?

I researched a few things that might help. The 20 centavo coin is 20mm, and the 1 peso just above is 29mm.
Here are sizes for the silver bullion coins:
1/4 Onza: 23mm
1/2 Onza: 28.9mm
1 Onza: 34.5mm
(There are 2 and 5 Onzas but I don't know the size)

So I'll guess the larger one is a 1/4 Onza and the smaller might be a 1/10 Onza (unsure of size)
