Second unknown coin is a bigger challenge since the reverse is so faded. This one is 7/8 of an inch and weighs 4 grams. Thanks again!

Are you sure these are two sides of the same coin? Because these pics are of two different coins: the top pic is Japanese, and the bottom pic is Chinese (Qian Long emperor).

Of course you are correct, and thanks for the tip on the third coin being Japanese.

Here's the missing side of the Chinese one pictured above.

This coin should be easy for many members here, but to help, here are some enhanced pictures of the OP coin.
Qian Long tong bao 1736-1796, very common.
