The second one is a British farthing in VG to F condition with a scratch and both coins are cleaned, have OU tried to clean them at all.
Feel free to call me Will.

The first one is a token but I don't have any reference material on it.
The farthing doesn't seem to be particularly uncommon and it looks like it has been cleaned so it probably wouldn't be worth much.

Hello,

As I said I'm not a coin collector, I just found those coins while detecting, and they were all dirty, I couldnt see a thing on them. So yeah I cleaned them to see what they were... The first one is indeed a token of 1 penny.

I found this but I dont know how to grade and how to read this book exactly... Any help appreciated, thx for all your answers : http://books.google.com.au/books?id...hams&f=false

Not sure about grades. The first one looks VF or better to me, the second one maybe aVF but it's hard to say.
