They look like some sort of private merchant tokens, since they don't have a date or face value. I think the 44 Werkzerg Marke on the German/Austrian  piece might be an in store token. You will have to google the names on the backside of the tokens. Good Luck

Actually the Maurer & Tilp  (Werkzeug Marke) is a tool check used to indicate that a specific tool was checked out by worker 44.   The worker would need to turn the tool in at the end of his shift or have the cost of the tool docked from his pay.  Such pieces are pretty common in old mining camps and large (dam, etc) construction sites here in the American southwest.  Can't tell you anything about the Maurer & Tilp company  though.

The second coin is an Irish Punt.

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.

The coin identified as an Irish Punt ( Pound) isn't. It has No Date or Face Value . It is a token, it is fashioned after the Irish Punt but it has no legal tender. As a collectible it might be worth a couple of dollars, same with the Miners Token. The picture below shows an example.

not to worried bout value, just want to catalogue them properly. the Irish one one is definitely some kinda token but for who and when?
that is the question? it is all in the fun of searching and enjoying collecting. thanks for the imput.
