I found these last week and was wondering if someone who knows more than I do could please tell me what they are. I'm pretty sure the second one is coral...beyond that I really have no idea. Thanks!

The first one could be a fossil, too. Why do you think the second is coral? There is no obvious structure that I could see. If there is obvious structure in either, please take some photos to show. The first one looks like many of my WI finds.

Like I said, I really have no idea. The second one was more of a WAG than anything else, I'll see if I can get a better picture.
The first one is harder and a bit shinier than the rest- I haven't tried scratching any of them yet, but one seems to be the hardest, then two and the last two are fairly soft.

Looks like flower bed rocks, the first could be an agate but real pictures would look better, If you are using a phone, don't try and get so close or use a real camera. Don't take me wrong, I take a lot of blurry photos myself, but I don't post them except in the trash can.

First one looks as if it might have some coral structure in one of the holes. I'd want to slice that one in half. The first and third could be agate that formed in pockets (and the surrounding materials have dissolved away), or they could be rock or fossil that was drilled by boring mollusks or bacteria long ago. Third one almost looks volcanic, though some limestones can also look that way. They've obviously weathered since.
