Lemon peel
The lemon peel looks legit to me, and its always speculation as to age, but I would say 1860's or so. It's nice its a one piece leather ball, and while has some moderate condition issues, I would say it's value is somewhere around $500 or so.
I haven't seen cork balls in that dark toned leather before, but I could be wrong. My guess would be a rudimentary 1880's figure 8 ball, likely used in children baseball games (or similar stick and ball games). Value on that one I would say $50-$100.
