First one looks like those barbaric imitations of roman coins, but I'm no sure... for second coin I cant make anything out of pics you posted just cross on reverse... Lets wait and see what others have to say.

PS You have same digital scale as I do.

I have no idea about the first coin, but the second may be a Theodosius II similar to this one:

I enhanced the reverse of your first coin a bit. I did a search of all the known monograms that I could find and was not able to find a match for your coin. The only one that can close was for Justin I, but the last letter and legend didn't match.

I agree with JW, your second coin is most likely Theodosius II

Not sure but the first coin has some similarities to this Zeno with monogram. Might be a lead?

I recognize that monogram style. It's Leo I and it's a Latin monogram. I think it matches the first one.

Good eye VK, I was reading the first letter as an R which sent me off in the wrong direction.
