Would appreciate some feedback re identification of 4 coins, images of obverse and reverse below.

Coin 1 diameter approx. 28.00mm and 1.10mm thick.

Coins 2, 3 and 4 are nominally 23-24mm diameter 1.45-1.55mm thick.

Many thanks in advance.

Your pics are all upside down.

All of your coins were cast at the Board of Revenue mint in Beijing, one of the two government ministries that produced coins.

Coin #1 is the oldest, from the Kang Xi emperor (1661-1722).

Coin #2 is from the Jia Qing emperor (1796-1820).

Coin #3 is from the Dao Guang emperor (1820-1850).

Coin #4 is from the Qian Long emperor (1735-1796).
