Looks like Japanese gaming token and military weights, the quality of these weights is similar to Japanese coinage, so unlikely these are fake
1. 吉田 (Yoshida), common gaming token made in Mikawa Province. Yours looks pretty big, so I'd doubt it's real, although common
2. 25 mon weight (reverse is upside-down)
3. 50 mon weight
