Papal States Coinage

These four coins came as a part of a much larger Papal States collection and I'm having a tough time identifying them accurately. Any help appreciated.

    The piece in the first photo at lower left with rays coming thru a door/portal (and a coat of arms on the other side) is Benedict XIV commemorating the holy year of 1750. Not enough detail in the photo to tie it down precisely but probably a quattrino or mezzo baiocchio from the Ravenna mint.

    It'd be interesting to see the other papal you got.

    The other coins are not papal. I thought the square ones were posted recently by someone either here or at CU.

    Always interested in St Louis MO & IL metro area and Evansville IN national bank notes and Vatican/papal states coins and medals!
