I have googled away and think these are Egyptian but can't pin them down. Both are approx 14mm in diameter and weigh about 2g each.
A positive identification would be appreciated.
Thanks
Brian.

I believe it is an Egypt Ottoman Empire 1/10 Qirsh coin.

Dates on Ottoman coins have to be calculated, then converted. This coin is dated 1327 accession, Year 6 regnal, which calculates to 1332 Islamic calendar, which then converts to AD 1914 - the last year of issue. NGC database page.
