    PS: I think #2 and 3 are the same exact design.

    The chinese symbol on top of coin 1 left photo is Kuang. Going clockwise, the next one is Tung.

    While coin 2 and 3 have the same design on both sides, they are not the same size.

    I'm not completely sure about #1. The other two in the OP post are from the Ching dynasty.
