Hello,
Bands of German 7.6cm could be made with different material (copper, zamac...), with different width and attached at different heights from the base. All this details depend of the year of manufacture (modification of models).
Maybe you already know it but the first one is a post ww1 Belgian mortar shell. The third one is a german message round. The second one with stamp (looks like Rheinmetall stamp) could be a message round too. I can't see well on your pictures if there is a groove above the band (to secure the base)
