Just to confirm: no and no.

The silvery one is a fantasy, based loosely on the "front facing portrait" coins of Henry VIII. There were, however, no such coins bearing the king's beginning and end of reign - the idea of such a "commemorative coin" had not yet been invented back then.

The golden one is a reproduction of a mediaeval gold coin known as an "angel", which was issued from 1465 to 1541. However, the style of the lettering is very wrong - it looks like (and probably was) copied from a copy of a copy.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
