Last week I published an image of a wooden humidor with medals mounted on top. Most were from California events as far back as 1908 and 1915. I asked, "Is anyone familiar with these medals?"

The second medal on the bottom row is HK-359 copper Utah exhibit medal from the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition, the third looks to be also an HK medal of Rear Admiral Evans from the 1908 United States Navy World Voyage. The fourth one looks like an medal from the 1915 Pan-Pacific International Exposition held in San Francisco. I'm sure your other readers will be able to determine the rest.
