The second one (the sand dollar)  looks to be Mepygurus from the Jurassic of Madagascar. This also makes the most sense due to the large number of them exported from there and polished, as this one is.

Hi,

 

Sea urchin without 5th ambulacra ? Maybe too polite to see it. I thought of Dendraster but I don’t think so.
