I can't see the top pic clearly enough to judge, but the one in the bottom pic looks like one of these - a jewellery imitation of an Ottoman Turkish gold coin.

Yes, second one sure looks like a fake, it is Al-Bronze/Brass and I think this kind of metal composition doesn't exist in ottoman coinage.

*I replaced the pics with better ones.
