@num, it is best practice to only post one coin per thread so that we can give each one the attention that it deserves.
With that said, I'm quite sure that your first coin is from late 17th or early 18th Century Venice. The winged lion of St. Mark is diagnostic. The number 12 in the exergue means that it is a Soldo.
Here is a numista link to the wrong coin as the inscription doesn't quite match up, but it should get you pretty close:
