Contemporary counterfeits? Answered

I was organizing my coins, receipts and clearing out trash today when I came across these. I forgot I had them.
Would you call this a contemporary counterfeit?
I know they are fake, no question about it. I'm just wondering what I should do with them. They do look pretty old so I am wondering if they were made 150 years ago or something more modern. Are they a know type of counterfeit?

They look like modern Chinese pieces.
That's possible but I have had them for many years.

Regardless of how long you’ve had them, they look like modern Chinese copies. But either way, they’re certainly not contemporary counterfeits.

Then Chinese counterfeit they are.
Just stuff I had in my junk box. Perfect place for them!

Modern. Would recommend marking them.
