I have a few coins here that are outside my usual realm of collecting and I need some help figuring out what they are. The first is dated 1686. It is strange because it almost looks like it's a bigger design that doesn't fit on the metal. There are traces of words along the edges but most are cut off. If it was cut after the fact, it's strange because it's mostly round. The secon is Islamic. I read the date as 1289. I'm not sure offhand but I think that's in the 1870s or 1880s. I can't make out a denomination. The third is from 1749, and I believe Holy Roman Empire. Would that make it Austria? It seems to be in an Austrian style. 1 kreuzer perhaps? I make out the words. Francisc D G Rom Imp S A - Francis by the grace of God Roman Emperor. On the back letters look like Mon nom RE__BREM.
This last one I think is Thailand. I've seen them on eBay but I'm not sure if that's right. I know it's either that or Tibet or somewhere around there.

Thanks for all the help. On that jeton, since I don't speak French, can you give me any idea what that means? My understanding is that a jeton is more of a token than money, is that right?
