Nice finds though neither of these are hammered?
The first is a Austrian silver Thaler of Empress Maria Theresa (mother theresa?...give me strength lol) though with the date 1780 it's guaranteed to be later as the Austrians restruck coins at later times and all those bearing  her portrait are dated 1780 Wink
It's also viewed by many coin collectors as the most beautiful coins ever minted.

Hmm - never seen one as a detector find before, but personally (especially in hand) they are horrible coins - I used to have quite a few when silver was cheap - off-loaded them as soon as the silver price went up

The other coin is a nice Anne - can tell the size though, but it's dated 1705 by the looks of it

Last but one is dated 1730 something - so Geo II halfpenny probably (but could be farthing depending on size)
