The 1 sen (a single crossbar at the top of the reversse) dated Showa 19 (1944) and the 10 sen (a plus sign) dated Showa 17 (1942) feel so light because they are aluminum. Photo 5 - the one with a round hole - is also Japanese. 10 sen dated Showa 19. I'm traveling without access to any references other than what's in my head, so I can't give much more info about any of the three.
