What are they and is there anything to break down on them? I see copper windings on the first one but it looks like a major production to get it out. There's some gold color mesh on the second one - ?

Also, what are these I snatched from the circuit board?

Being in the exploratory phase of scrapping I opened one up and found what seems to be a nonmetallic ribbon wrapped in paper and a little oil inside. Is there any reason to harvest these?

Thanks for all your help!!
