    Seeing the other sides would help, too. What I could figure out, from left->right top->bottom:

    1. ...
    2. 1869 Greek ...
    3. Emergency Coin - Trier Kleingeldersatzmarke - Stadt Trier (City of Trier) 10 pfennig Not Dated Zinc octogonal, 21 mm Emergency Coin
    4. 1909 Swedish ...
    5. German ...

    Here are the reverses of those coins (in the same order). Not much more to work with here.
    I figured Ore was Swedish and Pfennig I know is German, but that's about all I could get.
