Both appear to be silver, neither are magnetic.
Am I right to be suspicious ?

Would the Chinese fake such common coins ?

Do you think either / both are fakes ?

Both of them are fake and neither would be silver, too light. A genuine example will weigh 26.4 grams, compare to this one-

Thanks very much.

I suspected so, and didn't pay anything for them.
