Large tokens

Can anyone recognise the large tokens in these pictures. Who made them or what company passed them out? Found in Michigan.
Thanks for any help.
 
The Truman and Washington pieces look like they're from one of the giveaway series (sometimes called "presidential data" tokens) dating back 40-50 years or so. Some were handed out at gas stations, banks, etc. Some were in boxes of cereal. I seem to recall seeing sets of them in hobby shops, too.
The other token is a novelty "flipper" or head/tails tossing coin, with both sides being winners. Some collectors call these Busty Betty tokens. They've been around at least since the early 1900's and are still being sold today.
Best of luck,
Buckram
