The tiny coin on the left is approx. 12mm and weighs 2.7 grams. It shows what might be an elephant on one side, although the scan is not very clear. The one on the right is approx. 18mm and weighs 5.7 grams. Identification needed.

My guess is that they are from India, not coins, but temple tokens.

Actually I think these are both coins from Kashmir - the brassy one reminds me of a stater of Queen Dida Rani - that's around 1000AD

Larger coin is of the Hindu king Harsha deva.
