    Most of the characters are difficult to distinguish, but the bottom coin in the second photo is from the reign of Emperor Sheng Tsu, 1662-1722. Sorry, can't make out any of the mint marks clearly. It would help to know the exact sizes of the small and large coins— maybe 1 cash and 5 cash pieces.
    Forgotten but not gone.
