I've brought a bunch of foreign coins and found 2 Chinese coins I think. I am not sure if these are real. Please can someone tell if they are real or fake and identify them. Thanks in advance

I can't make out that second one, but the first one looks genuine (I think). I wasn't able to find the exact coin, but I can tell that that coin was minted under the Jiaqing Emperor, who reined from 1760-1820. I don't think it would be worth too much (especially in that condition), but if that specific coin has a low mintage, it could be worth a few bucks in better condition.

The second one looks like emperor Kang xi 1662-1722.
Very little to about no value.

Supposedly, both are Bao Zhe (Zhejiang or Hangzhou mint), but unfortunately, both are forgeries. Kangxi we know only has Bao Quan Bao yuan in Manchu scripts. Bao zhe is actually a combination of Manchu and Chinse or Man Han #65288;see photo for reference)

The second coin is impossible and should not exist, and judging from the similar patina it shares with the first coin, we can further deduce the first coin is fake as well.
