Today I purchased a collection of mainly Canadian Coins. It was everything or nothing, the whole Banana Box for one price... sure was a small gamble, but ok.
I found all sort of interesting coins and medals in different smaller boxes. There were German, Austrian, French, Russian and polish coins, all dating way before me...
The Imaged coins/ medals were also included. Unfortunately, I have NO idea what they are. I marked each iem from A-C
Hopefully some of you can help?

thanks to everyone

    D. Appears to be originating somewhere out of the vicinity of Austria/Hungary. There's also German text on it.

    Object (A) may have a French design, but it is of German origin. It's a Nuremberg jeton; I believe "IFW" in the reverse exergue are the initials of Iohann Friedrich Weidinger, token-master from 1710 to 1765.
    Waste no more time arguing what a good man should be. Be one.
